Against the record
IRON, from XPENG, is at stage 1 of 5 on our ladder: demo only. Shown in videos or staged events; no units with customers. The latest milestone on its record is from 8 Sept 2026: XPENG opened an IRON production line in Guangzhou. The first robot built there walked off the line by itself.
This video comes from the maker's own channel, and makers show their robots at their best. The stage above comes from dated public records, not from the video.
From the video's description
Can the XPENG GX survive the brutal UAE desert heat? 🔥 ArabGT, the Gulf’s top auto media, tests XPENG GX in Al Dafra with hosts Kareem Deeb & Suhaib Shashaa. Following its Turpan heat challenge, it sat under direct sunlight for 60–90 mins. Tests cover cabin cooling, idle AC use, hot-weather acceleration, range and fast-charging performance at low battery levels. #XPENG #XPENGGX
