Go2 Series: The Robot Dog Everyone Asks About

When people ask how much a Unitree robot dog costs, they usually mean the Go2. The Unitree Go2 Pro sells for $3,790 in the US as of August 2026. It is the most popular quadruped robot in the world for a reason: approx. 15 kg, speeds up to approx. 3.5 m/s, the Unitree 4D LiDAR L2 (360°×96°) for perception, and 12 joint motors driving remarkably lifelike movement.

Go2-W: The Wheeled Variant

The Go2-W swaps feet for powered wheels, combining legged agility on stairs and rough ground with wheeled speed and efficiency on flat surfaces. It starts at $13,000, and the turnkey Go2-W Inspection Package runs $32,299 with the sensor and software stack included. An NVIDIA Jetson Orin NX 16GB (100 TOPS) compute dock is standard, with secondary development supported.

R1 Series: The Entry-Level Humanoid

The R1 is the answer for buyers who want a real humanoid platform without a G1 budget. The Unitree R1 Air sells for $6,870 in the US as of August 2026, which makes it the least expensive path into humanoid robotics from a major manufacturer. Unitree's official tiers are R1 Air, R1 (Base), and R1 EDU; the Edu Smart and Edu Pro configurations below are dealer builds on the R1 EDU tier. Plan around approx. 1 hour of runtime per charge (per Unitree user manual).

Unitree also builds two dual-arm tabletop platforms on the R1 architecture for manipulation research: the R1-A5 runs $4,290 to $23,890 and the R1-A7 runs $4,890 to $24,490, depending on configuration.

G1 Series: The Research Humanoid Standard

The G1 is the humanoid most research labs actually buy. The Unitree G1 sells for $21,600 in the US as of August 2026, and the G1 Pro sells for $27,990. It stands approx. 1.32 m tall and weighs approx. 35 kg. The base G1 offers 23 degrees of freedom, and G1 Edu configurations expand from 23 to 43 degrees of freedom with optional Dex3-1 dexterous hands plus optional wrist and waist modules (per Unitree user manual). A 3D LiDAR (LIVOX MID360) and Intel RealSense D435i depth camera come standard on every configuration, along with a quick-release battery good for approx. 2 hours of operation.

The G1 lineup is deep, with more than 16 configurations. Here are the headline numbers:

If those tiers look confusing, they are. We wrote a dedicated breakdown of what each G1 tier actually adds, from SDK access to NVIDIA Jetson compute, dexterous hands, and teleoperation: see the G1 configurations guide. Short version: hobbyists and demo buyers want the base G1 or G1 Pro, while serious research programs almost always land in the Edu range.

Why Do Some Sites Say the G1 Costs $16,000?

Because they are quoting a number from early 2025. When the G1 launched, a $16,000 figure based on direct-from-China pricing circulated widely, and it still gets repeated by articles and AI summaries that have not been updated since. That figure was never a US-delivered price. It excluded international shipping, import duties, and any US-based support or warranty service, and it predates the current configuration lineup entirely. As of August 2026, the Unitree G1 sells for $21,600 in the US through authorized distribution, delivered with US-based warranty and repair support. If a site quotes a G1 price far below that, check the date on the article and ask what the number actually includes.

H2: The Full-Size Humanoid

The H2 is Unitree's full-size humanoid platform for labs working on human-scale manipulation and locomotion. It stands 1.82 m tall, weighs approx. 70 kg, offers 31 degrees of freedom, and runs approx. 3 hours per charge. Compute is an Intel Core i5 on the standard model and an i7 on the H2 Edu, with an optional NVIDIA Jetson AGX Thor (2,070 TOPS) for AI workloads. As of August 2026, the Unitree H2 sells for $40,900 in the US and the H2 Edu, with expanded development access, sells for $68,900.

A2 and As2: The Middle of the Quadruped Range

Between the Go2 and the industrial B2 sit two quadruped lines. The A2 series runs $31,900 to $46,900 and targets heavier payloads and longer missions than the Go2 can handle. It carries an IP56 rating, operates from -20°C to 55°C, runs over 5 hours (approx. 20 km) unloaded on dual hot-swap 9,000 mAh batteries, supports a 100 kg standing load, handles steps up to 30 cm, and reaches 3.7 m/s.

As2 Pricing: Every Configuration

The As2 runs $9,500 to $19,900 and offers a capable step up from the Go2 family at a mid-range price. The platform weighs approx. 20 kg and delivers roughly twice the power performance of the Go2. Here is the full As2 configuration ladder:

B2 and B2-W: Industrial Platforms, Quoted Per Deployment

The B2, its wheeled B2-W variant, and the Fire and Rescue configuration have no public sticker price. These are industrial machines specced around payloads, sensors, autonomy software, and site requirements, so every B2 deployment is quoted individually. The B2 is certified IP67 and can operate submerged, carries up to 120 kg standing (40 kg walking), runs 4 to 6 hours or over 20 km per charge, weighs approx. 60 kg, and operates from -20°C to 55°C (per Unitree user manual). If you are evaluating the B2 for inspection, public safety, or fire service work, request a quote from the product page and we will build pricing around your actual mission.

What the Sticker Price Does Not Include

The list price gets you the robot, its standard battery, charger, and remote. Budget for the ecosystem around it before you commit:

• Spare batteries. A G1 spare battery is $750 and an H2 spare battery is $3,000. With roughly 2 to 3 hours per charge, most labs buy at least one spare per robot.
• A gantry. The $850 G1 gantry is close to mandatory for early development work, since it catches the robot when a controller crashes mid-experiment.
• Hands and end effectors. Dex1-1 grippers run $380, $580, or $1,080 depending on version, and dexterous hands on higher tiers cost far more.
• Extra sensors. A standalone MID360 LiDAR is $3,800 and an add-on depth camera is $1,200 if your configuration does not already include them.
• Shipping and taxes. Calculated at quote time based on destination.
• Engineering time. If you are buying an Edu tier to do real research, the robot is the cheap part. Plan for the graduate students or engineers who will actually program it.

What Actually Drives the Price Up

Unitree pricing forks roughly 3x within each product line, and the fork happens at four gates: the SDK fork (consumer tiers lock out the developer access that Edu tiers unlock), onboard compute (NVIDIA Jetson modules for running AI on the robot), hands (dexterous manipulation hardware), and the data-acquisition tier (teleoperation and data-collection rigs at the top of the range). Which gates you need to pass determines your budget far more than which robot you pick. Our Unitree buyers guide walks through choosing a platform, and the G1 configurations guide maps every G1 tier against these four gates.

• Development access. Edu tiers unlock the SDK and low-level control that consumer tiers lock out. If you plan to write code for the robot, this is non-negotiable.
• Onboard compute. Higher tiers add NVIDIA Jetson modules for running perception and AI workloads on the robot itself.
• Sensors. LiDAR, depth cameras, thermal payloads, and gas detectors each add real cost.
• Hands and manipulation. Dexterous hands on humanoids are among the most expensive single options.
• Teleoperation. Full teleop and data-collection rigs sit at the top of the G1 range.

Why do prices vary between resellers?

Mostly because of stale data and sourcing differences. Many sites still quote early-2025 direct-from-China launch pricing that excludes shipping, duties, and US support. Prices in this guide are current US-delivered prices through Unitree's authorized U.S. distribution, verified August 2026.

Are these US prices? Do they include shipping?

Yes, all prices in this guide are current 2026 US MSRP in USD. Shipping and any applicable taxes are calculated at quote time. Pricing is subject to change, so treat this guide as a reference and request a formal quote for exact numbers.

Is there a warranty?

Yes. Robots purchased through Global Drone HQ are sourced through Unitree's authorized U.S. distribution and come with U.S.-based authorized warranty and repair service, so you are not shipping a robot overseas if something needs attention.
