During the event, Huilun Technology signed a strategic cooperation agreement with local authorities in the Guangzhou Development Zone and Huangpu District, confirming that its headquarters will be based in Huangpu. By combining GAC's deep manufacturing expertise with the district's diverse application scenarios, the company aims to accelerate ecosystem building and establish a sustainable commercial model for embodied robotics.
Huilun Technology will concentrate on the full lifecycle of embodied intelligent robots, spanning research and development, manufacturing, sales and after-sales services. The company says it has built end-to-end in-house capabilities, covering structural engineering, systems integration, motion control algorithms and high-level perception and decision-making software. It has also achieved internal development breakthroughs in key hardware components such as axial flux motors, integrated joint modules, drive units and dexterous robotic hands. To date, GAC's four generation of humanoid robot prototypes has been completed, reflecting a rapid iteration cycle more commonly seen in the automotive sector.
Under its roadmap, the company plans to begin small-batch pilot production of its core models later this year, while simultaneously deploying benchmark use cases in the security sector. Large-scale mass production is targeted for 2027, positioning GAC among a growing group of Chinese automakers leveraging their industrial foundations to enter the embodied AI race.
