Delivery to United States is unconfirmed. Check with the seller before budgeting.
Delivered to United States: the import estimate (machine plus freight, Sales tax (0%), robot duty, and broker), or a seller in your own market where one lists the machine for less. Accessories excluded. Check configuration and request a seller quote on each robot's datasheet.
Some costs are unknown, so no overall lowest-cost machine can be identified.
About 40% on China-origin collected today: the 2.5% MFN base, 25% Section 301 List 1, and the 12.5% Section 301 forced-labor duty effective 24 Jul 2026 with no expiry. It began the same morning the 10% Section 122 surcharge lapsed, so the total rose from about 37.5% rather than falling to 27.5%. Confirm the live rate before ordering.

| Out of the box | Dynamic walking up to 2 m/s, 320-degree waist rotation, and a famous front-flip demo, all via remote or app. It is a motion-capable R&D platform, not a task robot. | Famous natural human-like walking gait (2 m/s) and whole-body motion demos. It is an R&D platform, with no useful autonomous work out of the box. | High-mobility demos driven from a handheld touchscreen remote controller (450 Nm peak torque, combat-robotics positioning, CES 2026 debut). The Basic Edition cannot run custom code. Still early hardware with limited independent validation. |
| Development access | Fully open-source platform (EngineAI publishes training and deployment code) on a dual-compute architecture, an 8-core CPU plus a Jetson Orin NX (16G) in the 2026 editions, with a strong community since its viral gait videos. | EngineAI's SE01 page documents no SDK, open-source code or secondary development, and its public GitHub repos cover the PM01, T800 and SA01 rather than the SE01, so ask what software access a quote includes. The joint modules are self-developed; the earlier 10-year design life claim is not on the maker's current page. | The Basic Edition priced here has no secondary development. EngineAI's table marks it as supported from the Open Source Edition up (Open Source, Pro and Max), which carry an AGX Orin 64G module that can be upgraded to Thor on request; the Basic has an Orin NX 16G. |
| Best for | Labs and integrators who want a highly dynamic, open-source locomotion platform and can handle quote-based buying. | Research teams that want a full-size locomotion platform with a signature gait and are prepared to confirm availability and software access directly with EngineAI. | Early adopters who want a full-size demo machine at this price, or integrators ready to pay for the Open Source Edition or higher to develop on new, still-unproven hardware. |
