LAS VEGAS, January 07 (AJP) -Step into Hyundai Motor Group’s CES showroom and robotics is already at work.

A humanoid robot sorts objects with precision, a four-legged machine patrols and inspects equipment autonomously, while compact mobility robots labeled MobED Pick and Place and MobED Delivery glide across the floor carrying cargo.

Nearby, a fully driverless Ioniq 5 robotaxi prepares for commercial service — all operating as part of an artificial-intelligence system designed to function in real time.

That is the scene Hyundai has built at CES 2026, where the group is demonstrating how its robotics portfolio — from factory floors to city streets — can operate as a single, connected ecosystem rather than isolated machines.

The group is operating a 1,836-square-meter (about 557-pyeong) booth in the West Hall of the Las Vegas Convention Center, designed as a lab-style environment that mirrors how robots would perceive, decide and move in real industrial and urban settings.

At the center of the exhibit, a next-generation electric Atlas performs precision sorting tasks, adjusting grip strength in real time using vision sensors and AI models. Nearby, Spot autonomously inspects equipment using Orbit AI, simulating patrol and monitoring work at industrial sites.

Mobility robotics is showcased through MobED, with concept variants including MobED Pick and Place and MobED Delivery, illustrating how a single platform can be adapted for logistics, material handling and service tasks through interchangeable top modules.

Autonomous mobility extends beyond robots to vehicles. Hyundai is displaying a robotaxi jointly developed with Motional, based on the Ioniq 5 and Hyundai’s E-GMP architecture. Rated at SAE Level 4, the robotaxi is set to be deployed this year in Las Vegas for public ride-hailing service.
