XPeng Motors plans to mass-produce flying cars by 2026, becoming the first company globally to do so. CEO He Xiaopeng also highlighted advancements in autonomous driving and humanoid robotics as part of the company’s future tech initiatives.
Chinese electric vehicle manufacturer XPeng Motors plans to begin mass production of flying cars by 2026, as China’s low-altitude economy gains traction with increasing policy support, according to a national lawmaker at the Two Sessions in Beijing, as reported by China Daily.
He Xiaopeng, a deputy to the 14th National People's Congress and chairman and CEO of XPeng Motors, stated that if the project stays on track, XPeng will be the first company globally to mass-produce flying cars. He added that the company is integrating AI with vehicle control to develop a new flight control system, aimed at enhancing safety and user-friendliness.
XPeng is also accelerating its efforts in autonomous driving, with plans to launch Level 3 autonomous vehicles this year, positioning itself to surpass global competitors. By 2026, the company aims to introduce Level 4 capabilities, including fully autonomous parking.
In addition to vehicles, XPeng is investing in humanoid robots. He noted that China’s humanoid robotics industry is progressing towards Level 3, where robots can operate autonomously in many scenarios but still require human supervision in complex situations. By 2026, humanoid robots with entry-level Level 3 capabilities are expected to enter moderate-scale commercial production.
