AGIBOT has reached a significant milestone by rolling out its 5,000th mass-produced humanoid robot, a major achievement for both the company and the broader robotics industry. This accomplishment highlights years of dedicated work in overcoming challenges related to robot stability, reliability, and durability. Mr. Zhihui Peng, Co-Founder, President, and CTO of AGIBOT, emphasized the company’s commitment to collaborating with industry partners to provide practical, versatile robots that can be used across a variety of real-world applications.
The 5,000 units include a diverse range of AGIBOT’s humanoid robots, currently employed in various commercial settings such as guided reception, exhibition services, entertainment, intelligent manufacturing, logistics sorting, security inspection, commercial cleaning, data-collection training, and scientific research. These deployments illustrate how embodied AI technology can facilitate industrial advancements, streamline service processes, and drive digital transformation in multiple industries worldwide. The increasing adoption of AGIBOT robots reflects the rising global demand for effective humanoid solutions that seamlessly integrate into existing business operations.
In another notable achievement, the AgiBot A2 humanoid robot has secured a place in the Guinness World Records for completing a 66-mile (106 km) walk over three days. Beginning its journey in Suzhou on November 10, 2025, the robot successfully reached Shanghai’s Bund waterfront on November 13, traversing highways, city streets, and various terrains while adhering to traffic regulations. Standing at 5 feet 6 inches tall, the A2 model is specifically designed for customer service roles and features chat interaction capabilities along with advanced lip-reading technology. Videos of the walk showcase the robot adeptly navigating alongside cyclists, scooters, and bustling urban environments.
The remarkable expansion of humanoid robotics in China is being fueled by significant government initiatives, increased investment, and widespread adoption across non-tech sectors. Noteworthy contracts are deploying humanoid robots in border control, logistics, and public services, while fresh funding is driving the development of robots equipped with advanced sensors for delicate, human-like tasks. As automakers venture into the field with plans for prototypes and in-vehicle robots, it is evident that robotics is emerging as a pivotal industrial focus. National tech exhibitions are attracting large audiences with agile, performance-oriented humanoid robots, underscoring the growing commercial and consumer interest in this technology.
With production costs decreasing and manufacturers gearing up for substantial output expansions, China is transitioning from experimental demonstrations to significant large-scale implementation, positioning itself as a leading force in the global humanoid robotics arena.
