Kawasaki Unveils Corleo: Hydrogen-Powered Robotic Vehicle for Eco-Friendly Off-Road Mobility
Key Ideas
  • Corleo is a hydrogen-powered, four-legged robotic vehicle by Kawasaki, integrating AI and clean energy to navigate diverse terrains with stability.
  • The robot's 150cc hydrogen engine generates electricity for movement, with independent legs for traversing rough surfaces and rubber hooves for enhanced grip.
  • Inspired by Kawasaki's motorcycle designs, Corleo responds to rider's body movements, features a HUD for real-time information, and envisions a potential market release by 2050.
Kawasaki Heavy Industries has introduced Corleo, a groundbreaking hydrogen-powered robotic vehicle, at the Osaka-Kansai Expo 2025. This innovative concept combines artificial intelligence with clean energy technologies to enable smooth navigation across various terrains. Corleo's four independent robotic legs provide balanced and stable movement, capable of traversing rough and uneven surfaces effortlessly. The robot features a 150cc hydrogen engine that generates electricity to power its limbs, positioning it as an environmentally friendly off-road mobility platform. Drawing inspiration from Kawasaki's motorcycle designs, Corleo boasts a streamlined body made of metal and carbon materials, with a head-like shield at the front end for aesthetics and visibility. Unlike traditional controls, Corleo responds to the rider's body movements, adjusting steps based on the shifting center of gravity. Equipped with a heads-up display (HUD), the robot offers real-time information on hydrogen levels, navigation, and movement stability. With rubber hooves for enhanced grip and the capability to jump over obstacles, Corleo provides a stable and flexible off-road experience. While detailed technical specifications like speed and range are currently undisclosed, Kawasaki envisions a potential market release by 2050, showcasing their commitment to merging robotics with sustainable energy solutions and the future of personal transportation.
