Mammotion unveils smarter robot lawn mowers at CES

Mammotion is expanding its robotic lawn mower lineup for 2026, introducing three new models at CES that aim to simplify autonomous yard care for a broader range of homeowners. The company unveiled a new flagship model, the Luba 3 AWD, alongside smaller offerings in the Luba Mini 2 AWD and the Yuka Mini 2 series. Mammotion Luba 3 AWD The standout among them is the Luba 3 AWD, a high-end mower designed for large and complex lawns. It debuts a next-generation version of Mammotion’s Tri-Fusion Navigation System that combines LiDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) for 3D mapping, RTK (Real-Time Kinematic) satellite correction for centimeter-level positioning, and AI-powered vision for real-time object recognition and obstacle avoidance. Unlike many older robotic mowers that rely on perimeter wires or basic camera systems , the Luba 3 AWD operates without any external equipment. The result is a mower designed to navigate open terrain, tree-lined lawns, and sloped landscapes with minimal setup. According to Mammotion, the Luba 3 AWD scans its environment in 360 degrees using horizontal and vertical LiDAR, identifies obstacles using dual 1080p cameras, and uses satellite correction data via NetRTK to stay precisely on course, even in challenging GPS environments. The Luba 3 AWD is designed to navigate open terrain, tree-lined lawns, and sloped landscapes. Mammotion The Luba 3 AWD is available in four configurations, covering properties from 0.37 to 2.5 acres. The top model can handle slopes up to 80 percent (38.6-degree inclines), navigate up to100 zones, and mow up to 7,000 square feet per hour. It also features all-wheel drive, dual cutting discs, a 15.8-inch cutting width, and an adaptive suspension system that can climb over 3-inch curbs. Pricing starts at $2,299, with availability beginning January 5 in the U.S., E.U., and U.K. Mammotion Luba Mini 2 AWD For homeowners with smaller yards–or tighter budgets–Mammotion is introducing the Luba Mini 2 AWD, which borrows several features from the flagship, including all-wheel drive, slope handling, and obstacle detection. It uses a tri-camera AI system and NetRTK, skipping LiDAR in favor of a simpler, compact design. This model covers up to 10,760 square feet (about 0.25 acres), supports multi-zone mapping, and includes a new side-mounted edge-cutting disc to trim closer to walls and fences, trimming within one inch of edges. The Luba Mini 2 AWD can trim within one inch of lawn edges. Mammotion Mammotion Yuka Mini 2 Also announced is the Yuka Mini 2 series, a more affordable robot mower with variants tailored to different yard conditions. Some Yuka models include full 360-degree LiDAR and vision navigation, while others stick with tri-camera vision alone. Most models include the same AI chip used across the lineup, offering object detection for pets, toys, and lawn furniture; plus, automated mapping through a smartphone app. Pricing for the Luba Mini 2 starts at 1,499 Euros, with U.S. and U.K. pricing to be announced later. Select models will be available immediately in the U.K. and the E.U., with others opening for preorder in North America from January 5. The Yuka Mini 2 series features variants tailored to different yard conditions. Mammotion Mammotion’s announcement comes as robotic mowers continue to evolve beyond their early limitations, with manufacturers adopting technologies once reserved for self-driving cars and high-end robot vacuums. While camera-based navigation has been standard in earlier models, new systems incorporating LiDAR and RTK offer higher precision, especially in environments with trees, fences, or subject to inconsistent GPS satellite signals. If you’re attending CES in person, Mammotion is exhibiting its wares at Venetian Expo booth #51632. This story is part of TechHive’s in-depth coverage of the best robot lawn mowers .
