小鹏汽车获广州全域L4 Robotaxi示范运营资质，官方新闻稿确认但无新增事实

- XPENG has been granted approval to conduct intelligent connected vehicle demonstration operations in Guangzhou, enabling it to carry out L4 Robotaxi demonstrations across the city.
- The approval transitions XPENG Robotaxi from technology validation to commercial operations, making Guangzhou a proving ground for a replicable framework and laying the groundwork for exporting integrated solutions globally.

GUANGZHOU, China, October 26, 2026 —XPeng Inc. ("XPENG" or the "Company", NYSE: XPEV; HKEX: 9868), a leading global Physical AI company, today announced that it has been approved for Guangzhou's intelligent connected vehicle demonstration application operation qualification, enabling L4 Robotaxi demonstration operation across the entire city. This approval marks a critical step from technology validation to operations and commercial-model validation, representing an important milestone in the commercialization of XPENG's Physical AI.

For Robotaxi, demonstration operations extend beyond autonomous driving validation, marking the product's entry into the real-world mobility service system. While stable driving is essential, the seamless coordination of order response, vehicle dispatch, passenger pickup, and exception handling is equally critical to service sustainability. This approval enables XPENG Robotaxi to validate these capabilities in Guangzhou. Moving forward, the team will leverage real-world demand to refine operational workflows and accumulate experience in fleet management and efficiency. During the initial phase, XPENG Robotaxi will continue to gradually open access via invitation codes, steadily expanding its service footprint while prioritizing safety.

Guangzhou serves as XPENG's R&D and mass-production hub, and is the first city for its Robotaxi commercialization. Through real-world operations, XPENG aims to integrate vehicles, autonomous driving software, and AI into a robust and sustainable solution.
This aligns with XPENG's clear strategic positioning. He Xiaopeng, Chairman & CEO of XPENG, previously said that XPENG Robotaxi will position itself as a technology provider and ecosystem enabler, rather than directly operating large-scale fleets. XPENG plans to deliver integrated solutions to global partners via its vehicle platforms, software, and AI capabilities, generating revenue through hardware sales, technology services, and commission sharing. On October, XPENG has officially announced its Robotaxi brand name 'XPENG YOYO' and opened autonomous driving registration to the public in China. In overseas markets, XPENG is currently in advanced discussions with several leading European mobility platforms, with the operational experience gained in Guangzhou serving as a strong foundation for localized global deployment.

The Robotaxi business is built on XPENG's mature smart EV technologies. Equipped with four in-house Turing AI chips delivering 3,000 TOPS of computing power and VLA 2.0 model, XPENG is extending its smart EV capabilities into L4 autonomous driving. Compared to traditional deployments requiring extensive customization, XPENG leverages model and technology stack reuse to enhance Robotaxi's adaptability across diverse road environments.
From rolling off the production line to public rollout, and from road testing to official demonstration operations, XPENG Robotaxi is advancing steadily. It is not merely an L4 application scenario, but a key exploration to translate fully self-developed Physical AI into products, services, and commercial cooperation, expected to unlock new growth potential beyond the vehicle business.
