Xpeng is set to commence public road tests of its robotaxis equipped with VLA 2.0 software, the Chinese electric vehicle (EV) maker's chairman and CEO He Xiaopeng said Thursday.

These robotaxis have passed closed-venue testing by third-party agencies, Mr. He said at a product launch event in Guangzhou. The EV maker announced at an event on November 5 that it would launch 3 robotaxi models in 2026. These vehicles would feature four Turing AI chips developed in-house by Xpeng, delivering computing power up to 3,000 TOPS.

I got to experience this last Friday. It's pretty good. Will have a video about it in the next few days. The drive wasn't perfect, but it's not as far behind as I expected.
