Description
XPENG IRON is the Chinese EV maker’s full‑size humanoid built to work in real spaces—factories, stores, and eventually public venues. The latest public details point to a robot about 1.73 m tall and ~70 kg, with ~60 joints and ~200 total degrees of freedom, plus dexterous hands (22 DoF) and “Eagle‑Eye” 720° vision for spatial awareness. XPENG says Iron is already assisting inside its own operations, which helps accelerate iteration toward broader deployments.

2026 Humanoid Robot Market Report
160 pages of exclusive insight from global robotics experts – uncover funding trends, technology challenges, leading manufacturers, supply chain shifts, and surveys and forecasts on future humanoid applications.
Compute is a headline feature. Iron runs XPENG’s in‑house Turing AI platform (up to ~3,000 TOPS in demos) and, in the newest iteration, a multi‑brain foundation model that fuses vision, language, and locomotion; some briefings mention three Turing chips in that stack. This is aimed at moving Iron from teleoperation to semi‑autonomous tasking and natural, on‑device dialogue.
The mechatronics package focuses on human‑space behavior. Reports highlight a bionic “bone–muscle–skin” structure with a flexible spine and soft outer skin to make human‑robot interaction safer; XPENG has also shown the robot running its Tianji AIOS software for perception, control, and voice interaction. Remote updates and cloud connectivity are described in several briefings, positioning Iron as a continuously improving platform rather than a fixed appliance.

Commercially, XPENG targets store greeter / guide, reception, and factory helper roles first, and has publicly talked about mass production around 2026. The company has signaled long‑term commitment – management has discussed up to ¥100 billion (~$13.8 B) of investment to push humanoids into useful work. Given current market signals, a realistic early purchase price for Iron is ~$150,000 (estimate; not yet official).
