LG Unveils Plans for Bipedal Robot Amid Hyundai's Supply Chain Expansion

LG Electronics has announced plans to unveil its first bipedal humanoid robot in Q1, 2027. This move comes as part of a strengthened alliance with Nvidia. Hyundai Motor Group is also scaling up its supply chain for humanoid robots by mobilizing about 200 first-tier materials and components suppliers.

The suppliers have been urged to submit detailed business plans for the new industry. Hyundai's efforts aim to build a domestic supply chain for humanoid robots, which could lead to increased production and competition in the market.
