Founder Wang Xingxing does exactly that in the one-minute demonstration video released today. He buckles into the central seat, grips the controls, and sets the machine in motion across an indoor workshop floor. The robot responds with smooth, deliberate steps on its beastly red legs.<\/p>\n<p><span id=\"more-243108\"\/><br \/><iframe title=\"Unitree Unveils: GD01, A Manned Transformable Mecha, from $650,000\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/oWOyUMJWptc?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><noscript><iframe title=\"Unitree Unveils: GD01, A Manned Transformable Mecha, from $650,000\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/oWOyUMJWptc?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/noscript><br \/>\nFrom the outside, you can tell how powerful this beast is; shiny red panels cover the limbs and torso frame, while silver bars keep everyone secure within the open cockpit. It\u2019s imposing, easily twice the height of most adults, and you get a terrific view from up top, but you also get a sense of how large this thing is. There are thick black treads wrapping around the frame and feet in case it needs additional traction, but then there are hydraulic lines and joint housings running down the arms and legs, which gives you a real sense of what\u2019s propelling this beast.<\/p>\n<div class=\"aawp\">\n<div class=\"aawp-product aawp-product--horizontal\" data-aawp-product-asin=\"B07TZP8WWZ\" data-aawp-product-id=\"236320\" data-aawp-tracking-id=\"tec02e-20\" data-aawp-product-title=\"Unitree G1 Humanoid Robot\uff08No Secondary Development\uff09\">\n<div class=\"aawp-product__thumb\">\n<p>            <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aawp-product__image\" src=\"https:\/\/m.media-amazon.com\/images\/I\/41V+YgoPxVL._SL160_.jpg\" alt=\"Unitree G1 Humanoid Robot\uff08No Secondary Development\uff09\"\/><\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"aawp-product__content\">\n<p>            Unitree G1 Humanoid Robot\uff08No Secondary Development\uff09        <\/p>\n<div class=\"aawp-product__description\">\n<ul>\n<li>Sleek &amp; Durable Design: Standing at 132cm tall and weighing only approx. 35kg, the G1 is constructed with aerospace-grade aluminum alloy and carbon&#8230;<\/li>\n<li>High Flexibility &amp; Safe Movement: Boasting 23 joint degrees of freedom (6 per leg, 5 per arm), it offers an extensive range of motion.

One solid push from the body and the pile collapses. No extra tools or dramatic wind-up needed. The 500-kilogram total weight, including the pilot, delivers real structural strength without any loss of control. Unitree notes the machine works as a civilian vehicle built for practical jobs like transport across rough sites, basic exploration, or even rescue work where a tall vantage point helps. Pricing starts at 3.9 million yuan, which works out to roughly 650 thousand dollars. That figure covers the base model now headed into mass production. Buyers will get a complete, ready-to-pilot system rather than a kit or prototype.<\/p><\/div>\n<p><!-- .post-content --><\/p>\n<div class=\"author-box\">\n<div class=\"image\"><img alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/cd9dd97b06fbd1f6be1acff91f646d5419f141ee329b99feb4a7bdd57c93988d?s=82&amp;r=g\" srcset=\"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/cd9dd97b06fbd1f6be1acff91f646d5419f141ee329b99feb4a7bdd57c93988d?s=164&amp;r=g 2x\" class=\"avatar avatar-82 photo\" height=\"82\" width=\"82\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\"\/><\/div>\n<div class=\"content\">\n<p>\t\t\t<span class=\"author\"><br \/>\n\t\t\t\t<span>Author<\/span><br \/>\n\t\t\t\tBill Smith\t\t\t<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"text author-bio\">When it comes to cars, video games or geek culture, Bill is an expert of those and more.
