各大车企纷纷布局机器人，掀起跨界热潮。 在这场"跨界热"中，必须保持冷思考。人形机器人运行的商业逻辑、所处的商业阶段都和汽车有差异， 需要高强度投入，回报周期漫长，市场教育和生态构建尚需大量的时间和金钱投入，如果车企对人形机 器人领域盲目投入，可能导致现金流长期紧绷，甚至触发流动性危机。 更不必说，汽车行业目前仍未完全走出"价格战"等阴云，前9个月中国汽车行业整体利润率仅4.5%，低 于下游工业企业平均水平，三季度中国上市车企的利润之和不及丰田一家企业。 笔者认为，布局人形机器人应该是基于技术延展性和真实市场需求的长期战略，而非追逐热点的资本游 戏。更谨慎地做好创新投入和财务健康的平衡，车企们才能在人形机器人赛道走得更远，直到"春暖花 开"那一天。 责编：李丹 当智能汽车技术暂时进入"空窗期"，人形机器人便站上了广州车展的"C位"。这背后是各大车企纷纷布 局机器人，掀起跨界热潮。除了广汽、小鹏之外，上汽、比亚迪、长安、奇瑞等车企均涌入了人形机器 人赛道，特斯拉更是把机器人视作公司的"未来"。 这种跨界有其合理性，机器人和智能汽车在底层技术上具有共通性，汽车的智能感知、自主移动、路线 规划、人机对话等功能和解决 ...
