R1

At the 2025 World Robot Conference, Unitree Robotics CEO Wang Xingxing discussed the pricing strategy for their new R1 humanoid robot (starting at ¥39,900). The R1, designed for development and customization, weighs 25Kg and integrates large language models for multi-modal interaction. Wang explained that the lower price point compared to the G1 reflects a model-specific approach, aiming to increase adoption by offering more affordable options within their robot product lines. Unitree previously launched the H1 and G1 humanoid robots.
