XPeng Co-President: China's EV Race, Flying Cars and Humanoid Robots

XPeng Co-President: China's EV Race, Flying Cars and Humanoid Robots

When will humanoid robots outnumber humans? Nicolai Tangen sits down with Brian Gu, Vice Chairman and Co-President of XPeng, who describes XPeng as a "physical AI" business rather than just a carmaker. They discuss XPeng's ventures into flying cars and humanoid robots, both built on the same core technology as its vehicles, and a Chinese EV market where new-energy cars now outsell combustion ones. Brian also reflects on his path from a chemistry PhD alongside a future Nobel laureate to a career in tech. With Norway as its flagship European market, XPeng's ambitions keep growing. Tune in!

In Good Company is hosted by Nicolai Tangen, CEO of Norges Bank Investment Management. New episodes every Wednesday, and don't miss our weekly Friday Wrap-Up.

The production team for this episode includes Isabelle Karlsson and PLAN-B's Guttorm Andreasen and Håkon Klemsdal. Background research was conducted by Simran Sahajpal.
