**Chery’s Subsidiary AiMoga Launches Online Sales of Its Mornine M1 Humanoid Robot for $41,400**

Chinese automaker **Chery** is venturing deeper into the world of robotics. Its subsidiary, **AiMoga**, has now opened online sales for the **Mornine M1** — a full-sized general-purpose humanoid robot — via its newly launched flagship store on JD.com.The listing went live on April 13, 2026, just days after the AiMoga Intelligent Robot JD.com Self-operated Flagship Store opened on April 2. Priced at **285,800 yuan** (approximately **$41,400**), the M1 is positioned as an accessible entry into embodied AI for businesses and potentially tech enthusiasts.

**Key Specs of the Mornine M1**

**Height:** 167 cm

**Weight:** 70 kg

**Degrees of Freedom:** 40 (excluding dexterous hands)

**Max Walking Speed:** 1 m/s

**Arm Payload:** Up to 1.5 kg per arm

**Battery:** 0.7 kWh — offering roughly **2 hours of operation** after a **2-hour charge**

The robot comes equipped with solid perception hardware: one 3D LiDAR, two depth cameras, one wide-angle camera, and four ultrasonic radars. It supports dual-hand collaborative tasks, can autonomously open car doors, and even allows VR-based remote operation. AiMoga envisions it being used for **sales, reception, training,** and other service-oriented roles.

Deliveries are expected to begin after **May 23, 2026**, according to the product page.Alongside the humanoid, AiMoga is also offering the **Argos X1** robotic dog at a more affordable **15,800 yuan** (about **$2,300**), with stock anticipated after May 8.

**A Strategic Move for Chery’s Robotics Arm**

This online launch marks a significant step in AiMoga’s commercialization efforts. Last year, the company held an investment conference for the Chinese market and signed agreements with multiple dealers. For 2026, AiMoga plans to focus on six core products while building a robust domestic sales network that includes specialty stores, traditional auto 4S dealerships, and shopping mall experience centers.The strategy also incorporates flexible purchasing options like leasing and installment plans, backed by Chery’s Huishin financial system.

**Context in China’s Booming Humanoid Robot Market**

Chery isn’t alone in this space. Several major Chinese automakers are accelerating their robotics ambitions. Xpeng’s chairman He Xiaopeng recently mentioned that the company’s next-generation Iron humanoid robot is on track for mass production by the end of 2026, while GAC aims for small-batch production of its GoMate robot this year.According to industry reports, China’s humanoid robot market is projected to see strong growth in 2026, with the sector entering a key commercialization phase in the second half of the year.Whether the Mornine M1 becomes a practical tool for everyday service roles or remains a high-end novelty for now, its availability on one of China’s biggest e-commerce platforms signals that humanoid robots are inching closer to real-world consumer and business adoption.

Chery-built Jaguar Land Rover has officially announced that the first model under its newly established Freelander electrified brand will make its global debut on March 31. This launch marks a “2.0 era” for the joint venture, introducing an independent NEV brand. This car was spotted in camouflage last month, and it was first announced this January.
The Freelander brand is positioned as a “global intelligent electric brand,” distinct from both Jaguar Land Rover’s existing luxury families and Chery’s current product lines. Its core mission is to fuse Chery’s NEV technologies with Jaguar Land Rover’s luxury heritage and off-road capabilities. The name “Freelander” itself carries a rich legacy, having been a highly successful Land Rover model from 1997, celebrated for its “4×4 all-terrain capability, urban versatility, and a lot of fun,” which led it to become Europe’s top-selling SUV for five consecutive years.
The inaugural Freelander model is slated to be a large 6-seater plug-in hybrid SUV. Teaser images reveal a robust, square-jawed design, echoing the original Freelander’s rugged aesthetic and drawing comparisons to a “Chinese mini-Defender.” Its front fascia will feature rectangular headlights with pixelated LED light sources.

Humanoid military robots, once confined to science fiction like **Terminator** or **Star Wars** battle droids, are rapidly transitioning into real-world defense programs as of 2026.

The most prominent development comes from U.S.-based startup **Foundation Future Industries**. Their **Phantom** (also called Phantom MK1) is a 5'9" (about 175 cm), 180-pound (82 kg) humanoid designed explicitly with military applications in mind. It can carry up to 44 pounds (20 kg) of payload—including lethal weaponry—and is built for high-risk scenarios such as reconnaissance, entering buildings first in urban combat, carrying ammunition to soldiers, bomb disposal support, or "first body in" dangerous situations. Foundation has secured millions in U.S. military contracts for research, logistics, and manufacturing tasks. While current deals do not yet include arming the robots, the company is in active discussions to expand into combat roles. CEO Sankaet Pathak predicts Phantom units could assist U.S. forces in non-combat battlefield capacities as early as 2026–2027. The company has even sent unarmed Phantom robots to Ukraine for military reconnaissance support in the ongoing conflict with Russia.

Foundation's production ambitions are aggressive: roughly 40 units in 2025, scaling to ~10,000 in 2026, and targeting 50,000 by the end of 2027. At an estimated unit price around $150,000, this positions Phantom as one of the more affordable combat-capable humanoids, potentially enabling mass deployment.

Other major humanoid developers like **Figure AI** (**Figure** 02/03), **Boston Dynamics** (**Atlas**), and **Tesla** (**Optimus**) have focused primarily on industrial and commercial uses—such as factory work at BMW or Hyundai—but military interest remains high. The U.S. Department of Defense continues exploring human-machine teaming concepts, though no large-scale humanoid combat programs have been publicly confirmed beyond startups like Foundation. Internationally, **China** leads in aggressive military robotics integration. While true armed humanoid soldiers remain limited, Beijing has showcased weaponized quadruped "robot dogs" (e.g., from Unitree derivatives), drone-deployed systems, and humanoid platforms in parades and demonstrations. State media has featured humanoids performing martial arts with weapons, and analysts warn of rapid dual-use (civil-military) development that could scale quickly.

**Advantages and Concerns**

Humanoid designs offer unique benefits in military contexts: they can use human tools and environments without modification, navigate stairs/rough terrain like people, and potentially integrate seamlessly with human troops. Supporters argue they could reduce soldier casualties by handling the most dangerous tasks first.

However, ethical questions loom large: accountability for lethal decisions, escalation risks in autonomous warfare, and the psychological impact of humanoid machines resembling humans in combat. Most programs emphasize **human-in-the-loop** control for lethal force, similar to current drone operations.

By March 2026, humanoid military robots remain in early deployment phases—mostly support and testing—but the trajectory is clear. Within 5–10 years, armed humanoid units could become normalized in select militaries, fundamentally reshaping ground warfare. The race is on, driven by both technological breakthroughs and geopolitical pressures.

Chinese manufacturers dominate the production of humanoid robots. In 2025, **Unitree Robotics** shipped over 5,500 robots, significantly outpacing American companies T**esla, Figure AI,** and **Agility Robotics**, which each produced around 150 units.

Currently, Unitree controls 26-32% of the market. Second place goes to China's AgiBot, with 5,000 robots and revenue of $142 million.

China produces over 80% of all humanoid robots worldwide. In 2025, the total market size was approximately 16,000 units. Robots are used in logistics, manufacturing, and the automotive industry.

However, the balance of power could change—Tesla plans to launch mass production of its Optimus robots in 2026. Counterpoint Research predicts the market will grow to 100,000 systems by 2027.

### Exterior Design

The Citroën ELO’s exterior is an iconic return to the brand’s history of functional, boxy, and clever designs, making a bold statement against the prevailing trend of large, heavy SUVs.

The overall design philosophy is Friendly, Compact Utility defined by a unique single-box minivan silhouette. The short, flat hood and upright stance maximize interior volume within a highly compact 4.10-meter footprint, similar to a subcompact hatchback. The aesthetic is cheerful, often presented in a vibrant light-shifting orange hue.

Lighting elements feature Citroën's contemporary vertical dual LED signature at the front and geometrically stylized, split LED taillamps at the rear. The bumpers and flat protective wing pads are made from a fully recyclable, durable plastic material (expanded polypropylene, 30% recycled content) designed to absorb minor knocks and act as resting shelves.

Aerodynamic elements are subtle, given the boxy shape, focusing on a clean break at the rear. The vehicle features opposing side doors (without a center pillar) that open to a massive $1.92 \\text{ meter}$ width, creating an unhindered entrance to the cabin. The concept rides on 21-inch wheels fitted with innovative Goodyear outdoor-ready smart tires.

---

### Interior and Features

The ELO’s interior is its defining feature: a highly flexible, multi-purpose living space built on a flat EV floor and designed for the maximum utilization of its footprint.

Dashboard and display technology eschew conventional touchscreens. The cockpit features a central driver's seat offering a panoramic $180^\\circ$ view through the wraparound windscreen. Instrumentation uses a modern, ingenious interface where information from flat screens is reflected onto a transparent panel with a reflective film, creating a floating projection display with minimal cost and complexity compared to a traditional HUD. The steering wheel is a futuristic shape with joystick-style controls.

Infotainment and connectivity are simple and ergonomic. The design avoids reliance on complex, expensive screens, instead focusing on smartphone integration and adaptability. The vehicle includes V2L (Vehicle-to-Load) power output for running external devices like speakers or grills for outdoor activities.

Seating, materials, and comfort features define the ELO’s REST, PLAY, WORK mission. The interior utilizes durable, simple, and cleanable materials. The standard layout is four seats, with the driver in the middle. The second row has three seats, which are removable and convert into outdoor camping chairs. Two additional seats are cleverly concealed beneath the second-row outer seats and can be unfolded to create a six-seat configuration without compromising boot space. For REST, the cabin converts into a two-person sleeping space using high-rigidity Dropstitch inflatable mattresses (a collaboration with Decathlon), inflated by an integrated compressor. The rear lights even double as bedside lamps. For WORK, the central driver’s seat rotates $360^\\circ$, and a pull-out desk/table can be attached for a mobile office setup.

Driver assistance and safety systems are designed to be safe and simple, though advanced ADAS is not the primary focus of the concept. The excellent visibility afforded by the central seating position and large glass area (4.5 $\\text{m}^2$ glazing) is a key safety feature.

---

### Performance and Driving Experience

While performance details are scarce, the ELO’s driving experience is centered on urban agility, easy maneuverability, and electric refinement, with an emphasis on its versatility when parked.

The ride quality, although unverified, is designed for urban comfort and easy access, aided by the high roofline. The motor is rear-mounted, which frees up the front end for better turning radius and maximizes the cabin floor space. Its compact length makes it agile and easy to park in crowded urban environments.

Efficiency is paramount, with the $4.10 \\text{ meter}$ length and focus on lightweight, sustainable materials (like expanded polypropylene) ensuring optimal energy consumption for a family vehicle. The utility features, such as the V2L capability and the ultra-modular interior, redefine the vehicle's functional performance beyond simple transportation.

---

### Pricing

As the Citroën ELO is a concept car and not a production model, no official pricing exists. Pricing is estimated based on its positioning relative to the brand's similar-sized compact electric offerings.

| Configuration/Trim | Price (USD) |
|---|---|
| Concept Car (No Production Price) | Priceless (Estimated production cost similar to a well-equipped e-C3) |
| Estimated Base Production Price | $25,000 (Based on European B-segment EV pricing) |

---

### Market Positioning and Competitors

The Citroën ELO is a radical concept that, if produced, would challenge the dominance of compact SUVs by reinventing the Compact Electric MPV/Leisure Activity Vehicle segment.

Comparable EVs in the same category and price:

1. Citroën ë-C3: The ELO shares a similar footprint and is likely to influence the design of its future successor, competing on accessibility and urban utility.
2. Jeep Avenger / Peugeot e-2008: Stellantis rivals competing in the subcompact electric crossover space, which the ELO seeks to differentiate from by offering superior cabin versatility and space.
3. Renault Twingo E-Tech Electric (Future): A small urban EV competitor focusing on retro design and accessibility, though the ELO targets a higher level of functionality.
4. Kia PV1 / PV5 (Platform Competitors): Kia’s purpose-built vehicle (PBV) concepts share the ELO's focus on functional, modular interior space built on a dedicated electric platform.

The ELO’s key differentiators are its hyper-modularity (4-to-6 seats, sleeping area, mobile office), central driving position, and commitment to sustainability (30% recycled materials). It appeals to a niche audience seeking a responsible, fun, and highly adaptable vehicle that truly acts as a "living space" rather than just a conveyance.

"London's streets have seen it all—from horse-drawn carriages to hypercars tearing up the Strand. But today? Something truly electric is about to rewrite the rules. Ladies and gentlemen, feast your eyes on the Jaguar Type 00. The 2026 electric concept that's got the automotive world buzzing... and not everyone’s thrilled about it."

"Picture this: a beast born from Jaguar's bold pivot to all-electric. Zero emissions, infinite attitude. We're talking over 600 horsepower from dual motors, a sub-3-second sprint to 60, and a range that laughs in the face of range anxiety. But it's not just specs—it's a statement. Goodbye, growling V8s; hello, silent storm."

"First sighting right here in the heart of Mayfair. Spotted dodging double-deckers like it's auditioning for a Bond chase. The controversy? Purists are howling—'Where's the roar?' they cry. But Jaguar's betting big: this is the future, sleek as a shadow, sharp as a stiletto. And from the stares it's turning, they're already hooked."

"Inside? A cockpit fit for tomorrow—vegan leather, augmented reality heads-up, and enough tech to make your smartphone jealous. It's not just a car; it's Jaguar's middle finger to the status quo. Electric, extravagant, and unapologetically British. "So, London—ready to ride the lightning? The Type 00 isn't just arriving; it's electrifying. Stay tuned... because this is only the spark." “But this isn’t Jaguar waking up one morning and deciding to go electric on a whim. The journey started over a decade ago. Back in 2018, Jaguar stunned the world with the I-PACE – the first premium all-electric SUV from a legacy British brand. It beat the Audi e-tron and Mercedes EQC to market, scooped World Car of the Year, and proved Jaguars could be silent predators. Over 100,000 I-PACEs later, it’s still the benchmark for electric driving feel.

Then came the lessons: Jaguar learned how to make EVs handle like a sports car, how to balance a 90 kWh battery low in a tall body, and how to give drivers that famous Jaguar ‘pace and grace’ without a drop of fuel.

But the real earthquake hit in 2021 when Jaguar announced ‘Reimagine’ – the most radical reset in its 89-year history. Every single Jaguar will be pure electric from 2025 onwards. The entire lineup – gone. XE, XF, F-TYPE, F-PACE – all discontinued to make way for an entirely new portfolio of born-electric grand tourers on a clean-sheet architecture.

The first fruit of Reimagine? The car you’re looking at right now – the Type 00 (pronounced ‘Type Zero Zero’). It’s the spiritual successor to legends like the C-Type, D-Type, and E-Type, but reinterpreted for the electric age. Built on the all-new JEA platform, 800-volt architecture, up to 1,000 hp in future models, and design language so bold that Jaguar’s own chairman called it ‘the most daring thing we’ve ever done’.In short: this isn’t a compromise. This is Jaguar pressing the reset button and coming back louder – just without the exhaust note.”

Attendees are buzzing about live demos of humanoid robots performing household chores, mountain-climbing prototypes, and AI systems that enable zero-downtime manufacturing. "Robotics isn't just about efficiency anymore; it's about building resilient, eco-friendly societies," said Dr. Scott Huang, COO of Techman Robot, during a keynote address. The event also includes business matching sessions, startup pitch contests, and technical forums, fostering global partnerships in an era where embodied AI – robots that "think" and "feel" like humans – is accelerating toward everyday adoption.

**Chinese Innovators Steal the Spotlight with Tactile Sensing Breakthroughs**

China's robotics sector is making waves, underscoring the nation's rapid ascent in embodied intelligence. PaXini Tech, a tactile sensing specialist, debuted its third-generation PX-6AX-GEN3 sensor at the show, allowing robots to "feel" textures with human-like precision for tasks like delicate manipulation in healthcare and logistics. Their OmniSharing DB platform generates nearly 200 million data entries annually, training bots for autonomous learning in real-world environments. "We're bridging the gap between digital AI and physical interaction," a PaXini spokesperson told reporters, as crowds gathered around demos of dexterous grippers sorting fragile goods without waste.Mech-Mind Robotics, another Chinese standout, expanded its booth to 360 square meters for the fourth year running, live-demoing 3D vision systems that integrate with foundation models for sustainable automation. From precision sorting in recycling plants to adaptive assembly lines, their tech emphasizes resource efficiency. Social media is abuzz with posts highlighting "China's tactile sensing and humanoids" as a game-changer, with one observer noting, "Robots here aren't just tools – they're evolving partners in a greener world."

**Japanese and Global Heavyweights Push Boundaries in AI and Simulation**

Japan, as the event's host, dominates with precision engineering. Techman Robot unveiled a high-speed AI flying-trigger inspection system powered by NVIDIA Omniverse simulation, enabling real-time defect detection at blistering speeds while minimizing energy use – a boon for eco-conscious factories. "This is a leap in collaborative robotics," Huang added, as the system synced with cobots for seamless, low-emission production lines.Debut exhibitors like Finland's Visual Components (Booth W3-41) are introducing offline programming tools that cut deployment time by simulating entire robotic ecosystems, reducing trial-and-error waste. Meanwhile, Orbbec and Advantech's joint NVIDIA-accelerated Physical AI platform wowed with next-gen vision for service robots in eldercare, projecting robots that navigate homes intuitively to support Japan's aging demographic.International flavors abound: Huayan Robotics (formerly Han's Robot) is demoing advanced cobots at Booth W3-12 for flexible manufacturing, while Elephant Robotics at W3-49 highlights educational kits blending AI and bionic arms. Korean firms focus on mobility bases for agile logistics bots, and U.S./EU players emphasize cloud-based simulation software. A viral X post summed it up: "From China's humanoids to Japan's mother machines, iREX is where AI meets physical productivity."

**A Call to Action for a Robotic Tomorrow**

As Day 2 unfolds, iREX 2025 isn't just an exhibition – it's a blueprint for sustainability. With robots tackling everything from disaster response to zero-waste supply chains, the event underscores a pivotal shift: machines as allies in human progress. Organizers expect record attendance, with pre-registered visitors from over 50 countries. For those unable to attend, virtual tours and session recordings will be available post-event via the official iREX site.In a world racing toward net-zero goals, iREX reminds us that the robots of tomorrow aren't coming to replace us – they're here to help us thrive. Stay tuned for more updates as the exhibition unfolds.

⚡️ A power bank for electric cars was invented in France
The Far-a-day battery trailer weighs about 500 kg and contains a 60 kWh battery—enough to add up to 300 km of range to an electric car, depending on the capacity of the standard battery.
It's not surprising that the idea was born in France, the birthplace of small city cars—these are the very cars that might struggle with their built-in battery over long distances.
There are no plans to sell this trailer yet, but it will be available for rent—similar to how we rent power banks and then return them to a station.
A test corridor is planned to open in 2026 on the Paris-Bordeaux route, and by 2027, the network should include about 30 stations. Some drawbacks include the need for a towing permit and the need for a towbar.
What do you think of this electric vehicle accessory?
