Today, we launched the world’s first automated production line for advanced general‑purpose humanoid robots, using robots to mass‑produce robots, autonomously.
This was uncharted territory, and we solved it from scratch. The commissioning of our production line means humanoid robots are now ready to scale up and step into the real world.
What touched my heartstrings most was watching our very first advanced general‑purpose humanoid robot complete assembly and walk off the line on its own. To me, this is not just about a smarter tool or a commodity. I hope it gains true generalization ability to take on dangerous, repetitive, or undesirable tasks, and ultimately make life better. Perhaps one day, robots may become our companions, friends, or part of family.
Grateful to every colleague on this momumental mission. And a warm welcome to IRON!

Recently, my colleagues and I test drove XPENG's second generation VLA model alongside the latest versions from global peers across China, North America, Europe, Australia, and other regions.
My direct impression is that on standard roads, such as main thoroughfares, XPENG's second generation VLA model is already on par with top-tier global products. In complex scenarios like navigating narrow streets, industrial parks, and parking lots, the experience is even better, supporting seamless navigation directly to a parking spot, both efficiently and safely.
We are accelerating the global deployment of the second generation VLA model. Recently, my team and I completed localized validation in Germany. With virtually no additional localized training data, the actual driving experience in Germany was remarkably close to that in China. I believe this demonstrates a clear lead over our peers in multi-region global generalization. We aim to be the first to secure regulatory approval in Europe in 2027 and begin delivering the second generation VLA model to more international customers overseas. We look forward to competing head-to-head on the same stage with the most advanced smart driving systems from global peers.
XPENG's second generation VLA model was trained in "devilishly complex road conditions." We began by tackling the most complex data and scenarios, aiming not only for superior performance across various operating conditions but also for a single model to better adapt to the road environments and capability requirements of different countries and regions.
Solve the hard problems first; start with the end in mind. Ultimately, we must face real global roads and real users, so right from the start, we chose to address genuine, hard-core challenges in complex environments.
Last year, Xianming and I made an interesting bet.
Today, I want to say, Congratulations, everyone! The Silicon Valley canteen is coming! 🎉
It hasn't been an easy journey. Thank you all for your persistent dedication and hard work.

Pedestrians. Bikes. Scooters. Traffic from every direction.
This is XPENG NGP navigating it all.
220+ XPENGs. 700+ people. One giant cinema. 🍿
In Denmark, our users turned a parking lot into something pretty special. Some brought popcorn. Some brought their families. And some even turned their XPENGs into private movie theaters with sleeping kits.
I love seeing technology become part of real life — and sometimes, just a great night out. Big thanks to our Denmark team and our amazing community for making this happen.

A massive thank you to all our investors, XPENG friends, and team members for your trust and support! 🙏
In the near future, we will strive to bring our first advanced humanoid robot into reality. It will be completely different from any robot currently on the market. More human-like, safer, requiring no remote control, capable of natural interaction, and equipped with its own memory. It will create genuine value. This isn’t just a tech demo, this is true mass production, stepping right into the real world. 💪💪💪

Recently, many friends have been asking me about XPENG GX. I took some time to sort out my thoughts and filmed this video.
Everything I want to say is here.
Dedicated to every restless soul. For you. For the times.

This time we took GX to Daguniu Mountain, one of the most winding roads in China. 49 sharp turns, steep grades, gravel everywhere. Let's take a look at how it did!
Saw the news before bed. P7+ won the 2026 Red Dot Award for Product Design.
It’s truly smart, elegant, and uncompromising.
Thank you all for the incredible work. Tonight is yours.👏

Really great to see XPENG as the exclusive automotive partner at HYROX Warsaw. Thank you to everyone pushing beyond their limits.
Fewer than 10% of those who tried it realized AI was behind the wheel. But what we're aiming for goes well beyond this.
Beijing Auto Show was a special moment for us.
We met many XPENG owners and heard their real stories. It makes us grateful and encouraged to see XPENG becoming part of more families.
Thank you for the trust. We will keep moving forward.
