EngineAI T800

The T800 is the full-size flagship of EngineAI, a Shenzhen humanoid maker, shown globally at CES 2026 in January and put into series production on 29 May 2026, when the company opened its Shenzhen manufacturing base and rolled out the first batch. Two things separate it from most humanoids of its class. First, it is actually being built at volume: EngineAI has stated a target of 4,000 to 5,000 units during 2026. Second, the company publishes a price list rather than inviting enquiries - RMB 180,000 for the Basic version, 240,000 for Development, 280,000 for Pro and 360,000 for Max. The robot stands 173 cm with 60 cm arms and 91 cm legs, weighs 75 to 85 kg depending on version, walks at 3 m/s or more and reaches a maximum joint torque of 450 N.m. Degrees of freedom scale with the version: 25 in the body on Basic and Development, 29 on Pro and 32 on Max, with Pro and Max adding seven-degree-of-freedom dexterous hands for 43 and 46 in total. Perception also scales: an Intel depth camera on Basic, EngineAI's own dual-lens system with lidar on Pro and Max, matched with Jetson Orin NX 16 GB or AGX Orin 64 GB. Runtime is 4 to 5 hours from a 71.4 V, 20 Ah ternary lithium pack, or from an optional 74.8 V, 40 Ah solid-state battery - still a rarity in shipping robots. The T800 is also the sole platform of URKL (Ultimate Robot Knock-out Legend), the humanoid combat league EngineAI founded in 2026, which held what it calls the world's first professional full-size humanoid combat event in Shenzhen on 16 July 2026. Every team fights with an identical robot supplied by the organiser and remote control is barred — machines must act on their own — so the tournament compares software, not hardware, and doubles as a public stress test of this one chassis. Bouts are not settled by knockout alone: the organiser scores balance, power delivery, motion control, decision-making, perception and structural protection. The prize pool is 10 million yuan, about 1.4 million US dollars, with a 10-kilogram solid gold belt for the champion; opening rounds ran July to August 2026, later rounds September to October, and the final is announced for Dubai around the turn of the year.
