Apollo 2
Apollo is Apptronik's general-purpose industrial humanoid. The original 2023 model was 1.72 m and 72.5 kg, could lift 25 kg and ran about 4 hours on a swappable battery. Apollo 2, revealed in June 2026 with legs or a wheeled base, is mainly a platform for pilots at Mercedes-Benz and GXO and for gathering training data with Google DeepMind. Apptronik raised $520M in February 2026 to ramp production, but has not published Apollo 2 specs, a price or a commercial date for Apollo 3.
