🚘 CHINESE CAR COMPANIES THINK ROBOTS COULD BECOME THEIR NEXT BIG BUSINESS
Several Chinese automakers are expanding beyond electric vehicles and investing heavily in humanoid robot development.
Car manufacturers already work with batteries, electric motors, cameras, sensors, artificial intelligence and automated factories, giving them many of the technologies required to produce advanced robots.
XPeng is developing humanoid machines, while other automotive companies and suppliers are acquiring robotics startups or establishing dedicated divisions.
🌐 Why it matters: Automakers could use their enormous factories and established supply chains to transform humanoid robots from expensive prototypes into mass produced commercial machines.
