Iron: The Humanoid Robot That Looks Like It Walked Out of Terminator

Chinese automotive company XPeng has unveiled "Iron," a highly advanced humanoid robot that has gone viral for its remarkably fluid and human-like movements, prompting comparisons to the Terminator. Designed with an exposed mechanical exoskeleton that can be dressed up to look masculine or feminine, Iron features hands with 22 degrees of flexibility and a torso capable of human-like bending. A key innovation is its inclusion of the industry’s first fully solid-state battery, enhancing safety for potential domestic use. XPeng plans to begin commercial production of Iron in 2026.
