Mammotion LUBA mini 2 AWD 1000

The LUBA mini 2 AWD 1000 opened Mammotion's 2026 range in the manufacturer's European store on 1 January 2026 at EUR 1,399, or EUR 1,499 with the Garage mini shelter, and the company markets it as the world's first vision-powered all-wheel-drive robot mower. The name it shares with the LUBA mini 2 AWD 1500 hides a genuinely different machine. The 1500 navigates by a 360-degree lidar and two cameras and needs no network connection at all; this 1000 has no lidar and instead fuses a triple-camera AI vision system with NetRTK, satellite corrections delivered over 4G or Wi-Fi rather than from an antenna the owner mounts in the garden. Mammotion quotes centimetre-level precision from that combination, credits a 10 TOPS AI chip for it, and claims mowing lines that stay straight to within 98 percent. What the machine keeps from the expensive end of the line is the drive: all-wheel drive rated for slopes up to 80 percent, or 38.6 degrees, which is roughly double what the company's rear-wheel-drive YUKA mini machines handle. The cutting disc carries a side blade that rides on paving or gravel where a lawn meets a different surface, trimming to about 5.5 centimetres from a wall. The 6.1 Ah battery is quoted at 150 minutes of mowing with adaptive recharging, and mapping is automatic and multi-zone, with up to ten maps kept in the cloud and up to ten mowing zones per map; obstacles as small as 2.5 by 2.5 centimetres are detected, and the vision system also recognises steps and drops. Two caveats belong on the record: the straight-line boundary editing that Mammotion advertises is dated by the manufacturer itself to late 2026, and the company publishes no mass, no dimensions, no cutting width, no cutting height range and no noise rating for this model, as it does for none of its cheaper mowers.
