Boston Dynamics Atlas vs Apptronik Apollo: Which 2026 Humanoid Is Built for Real Factories?

Atlas leads on published factory-ready specs and Hyundai's scale plan, but neither Atlas nor Apollo has disclosed production proof.

• Atlas leads published specs: Boston Dynamics' Atlas is 1.9m/90kg with a 50kg instant lift, 30kg sustained lift, 2.3m reach, 56 degrees of freedom, and a four-fingered 13-DOF hand with tactile sensors.
• Apollo's numbers are stale: The widely cited 1.72m/72.6kg/25kg-lift/4-hour figures are from the original Apollo, not the Apollo 2 platform unveiled June 2026, which lacks a published spec sheet.
