Unitree Robot Price: Full Lineup Comparison

The full Unitree price list at a glance

There is no single "Unitree robot price." The company sells a wide range of machines, and the sticker jumps from roughly $1,600 for an entry quadruped to $100,000 for its industrial and flagship-humanoid tiers. The table below lists every shipping model on the official store, its published starting price in USD, the trim or edition that price buys, its category, and a note on what US buyers should expect after the 2026 import rules. Prices are pulled from shop.unitree.com and are the figure before shipping, customs duties, taxes, and import clearance.

Two things drive almost all of the spread. The first is category: consumer and prosumer quadrupeds (Go2) sit at the bottom, research and industrial quadrupeds (Aliengo, B2, A2) sit at the top, and the humanoids fall in between. The second is edition. Most models split into a locked consumer/standard unit and a quote-only EDU (education) edition that unlocks secondary development. Unitree does not publish EDU prices; those are handled by sales, so we mark them "quote only / not publicly listed" rather than guess.

Where a model is not listed with an open price on the storefront — the wheeled Go2-W, and every EDU edition — we do not invent a number. Treat those rows as "contact sales." The published prices below were current on the official store as of 19 August 2026; Unitree changes listings often, so confirm the live figure before you buy.

Quadruped prices: Go2 up to the industrial dogs

The quadrupeds — the "robot dogs" — are where Unitree's range is widest. The Unitree Go2 is the volume product and the cheapest way into the brand. Its store listing starts at $1,600 for the Go2 Air without a controller, with the Go2 Pro at $2,800. The research-grade Go2 EDU, which unlocks the SDK and full sensor access, is quote-only through sales. If you only need a walking, mapping, camera-equipped dog to learn on, the Air and Pro cover it; the EDU is for labs that need to program low-level control.

Above the Go2, the pricing changes character entirely. The Aliengo research platform is listed at $50,000, and the industrial B2, wheeled B2-W, and newer A2 each sit at $100,000. These are not consumer purchases — they are payload-carrying, IP-rated machines sold to inspection, security, and industrial-research buyers, and the six-figure sticker reflects it. For a broader cross-brand view of dog pricing, our robot dog price comparison puts these against Boston Dynamics Spot and others.

The base-versus-loaded gap matters most on the Go2. A $1,600 Air and a $2,800 Pro can look like the same robot in photos, but the Pro adds compute, better sensing, and longer effective range for developers. Buyers routinely under-budget here, then discover the accessory they needed — extra battery, controller, LiDAR — is a separate line item. Read the trim carefully before checkout.

Humanoid prices: R1, G1, and H2

The humanoids are the reason most people search for Unitree pricing, and they span an unusually wide band. The Unitree R1 is the entry point: the store lists it from $4,900 for the R1 Air, with the standard R1 and the developer-focused R1 EDU priced higher and the EDU handled by sales. That sub-$5,000 figure made headlines because it undercut every other bipedal humanoid on the open market.

In the middle sits the Unitree G1 at $13,500 for the standard, secondary-development-locked unit, with a quote-only G1 EDU for research. We deliberately do not repeat the full G1 breakdown here — the trims, the EDU quote reality, and the accessory costs get their own treatment on the Unitree G1 price page. Use that for the deep dive; use this table for how the G1 sits against its siblings.

At the top is the full-size Unitree H2, listed at $29,900 on Unitree's own store — one of the only full-size humanoids anywhere with an open list price. Read the fine print: that number is the China-market figure, the North American regional partner lists the H2 from $40,900, and the H2 Plus reference configuration is $100,000. As always, none of these include shipping, duty, or tax.

The number on the store is not the number you pay

Every price on this page is a pre-shipping, pre-duty, pre-tax figure that assumes the robot ships from China. For a US buyer, three separate costs stack on top. First, freight: Unitree's own checkout quotes roughly $399 to $1,000 in shipping depending on the model and destination, and a crated industrial dog costs far more. Second, customs duty and any applicable tariff on the declared value — on a $100,000 A2 or a $40,900 H2, that is a large number in its own right. Third, import brokerage and clearance fees to actually get the crate released.

The decisive factor in 2026 is regulatory, not financial. As reported by the Wall Street Journal, the United States last month banned most imports of new humanoid robot models, citing what it called an "immediate national security threat." That restriction lands squarely on the R1, G1, and H2 — the humanoid rows in every table above. The same FCC action also reaches quadruped robot dogs, so the Go2 and B2 are not automatically exempt; what decides availability is whether a given model was already authorized before the cutoff. We track the rule and its scope on our US humanoid robot import ban explainer.

The practical result: a US buyer cannot treat the $13,500 G1 or the $29,900 H2 sticker as a delivered price, and for new humanoid units may not be able to import at all through normal channels. Before committing to any humanoid, confirm current availability and legal import status — read our guide to buying Chinese humanoid robots for the full compliance picture.

• Sticker price = pre-shipping, pre-duty, pre-tax, shipped from China.
• Freight: roughly $399–$1,000 on smaller units; far more crated.
• Customs duty + any tariff on the declared value.
• Broker and clearance fees to release the shipment.
• Humanoids (R1, G1, H2): subject to the 2026 US import restriction — confirm legality first.

Cheapest to most expensive: matching price to buyer

If the question is simply "what is the cheapest way in," the answer is the Go2 Air at $1,600 for a quadruped, or the R1 Air at $4,900 if you specifically want a humanoid. Neither is a household helper; both are development and learning platforms. The most expensive open-list items are the industrial quadrupeds and the H2 Plus at $100,000, aimed at enterprises, not individuals.

The right pick depends on what you are actually doing. A student or hobbyist wants the Go2 Air. A developer who needs to write control code wants an EDU edition (Go2, R1, or G1) and should budget for a sales quote, not the list price. A research lab studying bipedal locomotion is the natural buyer for the G1 or H2. An industrial operator needs the B2 or A2 and the six-figure budget that comes with them. There is no single best model — only the best model for a defined job.

Cross-shopping other brands is worth the time before you spend. Our humanoid robot price comparison puts the R1, G1, and H2 against 1X, Boston Dynamics, and others, and the Chinese humanoid buying guide covers warranty, support, and import logistics that the raw price never shows.
