Chinese company Xpeng has just offered a first look at its robot-unicorn project, a future mobility device designed for children to ride. But what is getting a lot of attention is the attempt of the makers to create a high-level smart mobility ecosystem with the toy since, according to the first images posted online, it has the ability to interact emotionally with its young owners.

After the dog-bots and the lizard-bots, now it's time for the unicorn-bots! Xpeng Robotics, a Chinese manufacturer of electric vehicles, has given a preview of its next project, which, for the Chinese group, represents the future of mobility. The Asian company plans to market this four-legged unicorn robot for children as soon as possible, although no production schedule has been announced.
