China’s Xpeng begins mass production of robotaxis in Guangzhou
YahooMay 18, 2026
Chinese electric vehicle maker Xpeng said on Monday it had begun mass production of its first robotaxi at its Guangzhou headquarters, targeting fully driverless operations by early 2027. The Tesla rival is accelerating its shift toward driverless vehicles and humanoid robotics as competition intensifies in the world’s largest auto market. The new robotaxi, built on Xpeng's GX platform, is China’s first "production-ready, pre-assembled robotaxi model developed entirely with in-house technologies," the company said.
