XPeng’s robotics unit Dogotix raises about $900 million in a funding round led by IDG Capital with strategic investors Tencent and Alibaba, valuing the unit at roughly $6.3 billion and signaling a standalone carve-out for the robotics business. Proceeds will fund hardware/software R&D, data generation, mass-production facilities, and global expansion, with Dogotix set to operate independently and XPeng retaining control; the IRON humanoid is planned for mass production by late 2026 and commercial launches in 2027.

— Jul 24, 2026
Xpeng is recalling 33,473 X9 vehicles built between August 8, 2023, and August 11, 2025 due to potential front air-spring airtightness leaks that could trigger warnings or affect handling under hot, humid conditions; replacements are free, and some cars have already been updated. The move follows Xpeng’s earlier apology and extended warranty coverage of the front air-spring system to eight years or 160,000 kilometers.
