Motion 2

Motion 2 from VinMotion made a dramatic debut at CES 2026 with boxing demonstrations, throwing strong punches while maintaining dynamic balance. Standing 178 cm tall and weighing 75 kg, the second-generation humanoid from Vietnamese conglomerate Vingroup represents a major leap in capability over Motion 1.

Powered by Qualcomm's Dragonwing IQ10 platform, Motion 2 features 31 smart motors and two hot-swappable batteries for continuous operation. The robot handles 40 kg payloads while maintaining the '3S' design philosophy: Self-standing (autonomous fall recovery), Self-charging (navigates to charging station when low), and Stable (real-time center-of-mass control under load).

Compared to Motion 1, Motion 2 delivers more natural gait, faster walking speed, and greater agility, essential for factory floor deployment. The autonomous battery swap capability eliminates charging downtime for true 24/7 operation. On-device AI processing enables improved motion planning without cloud dependency.

VinMotion was established in January 2025 with 1,000 billion VND ($40M) charter capital, with Vingroup holding 51% and Chairman Pham Nhat Vuong's family the remainder. The roadmap targets testing at VinFast factories for quality control and component transportation, successful deployment there will certify VinMotion for expansion to other manufacturers. Plans include opening a southern California office to accelerate US market development for industrial humanoids.
