Frequently asked questions
Which is cheaper: G1 or 4NE-1?
G1 is cheaper at $87,000 vs $114,500 for 4NE-1. Note that lower price does not imply lower total cost of ownership — see the TCO calculator on the Explore page for utilisation-adjusted figures.
Which has higher payload: G1 or 4NE-1?
4NE-1 rates a higher payload at 15 kg vs 10 kg. Payload ratings are vendor claims and do not always include a duty cycle — peak vs sustained payload can differ significantly.
Is G1 or 4NE-1 actually available to buy?
G1 is shipping to customers. 4NE-1 is in active development without commercial availability. Status reflects the vendor's published commercial position as of the last review and can change between announcement and actual delivery.
Does G1 or 4NE-1 use LiDAR?
G1 ships with LiDAR for depth sensing; 4NE-1 does not. LiDAR adds cost and complexity but improves obstacle detection in low-light or low-contrast environments.
