XPENG Opens Full Tech Stack to Partners, Sets IRON Robot Timeline

PARIS – – October 14, 2026 -- XPENG is opening its full in-house technology stack and engineering toolchains to global automotive partners under a new "XPENG AI Engineering" strategy, after Chairman and CEO He Xiaopeng became the first Chinese automaker chief to deliver a keynote at the Paris Automotive Summit.

XPENG offers vehicle platforms, batteries and AI chips to outside manufacturers

The offer covers vehicle platforms, E/E architecture, batteries, e-drives, the AI BOX, the Turing AI chip and the Turing physical world foundation model. He said no single manufacturer holds all the advantages needed for the next generation of smart mobility. Under the model, partners can co-develop differentiated products while building their own technology capabilities over time.
