National People's Congress representative and Chairman of Xiaopeng Motors, He Xiaopeng: Not all car companies can successfully transition into humanoid robot companies.

"The government foresaw that artificial intelligence can not only combine with the digital economy, but also has more possibilities on intelligent terminals. When the AI capabilities in the digital world are combined with moving hardware such as cars and robots in the physical world, it will give rise to 'physical AI', meaning that robots will gradually have the ability to understand, interact and change the world. This will bring disruptive changes to productivity and production relations." On March 7th, NPC deputy and Chairman and CEO of Xiaopeng Motors, He Xiaopeng, said in an interview with reporters. In He Xiaopeng's view, intelligent vehicles, Robotaxis, flying cars, and robots all belong to intelligent entities, which are also applications of physical AI. "In the next five years, first, we need to implement physical AI, including mass production of flying cars, robots, and Robotaxis; secondly, we need to go global from China. This year is the final year of infrastructure construction for Xiaopeng Motors in terms of organization, products, and technology. The globalization process will accelerate significantly from 2027 to 2028; in the past, Xiaopeng's investment in technology research and development accounted for over 10% of its revenue, and it is expected that technology will start generating commercial profits from the second half of this year to next year, forming a positive cycle of 'technology - business'."
