Faraday Future prices its Futurist humanoid at $89,900 and a Master Mini at $9,990
Faraday Future’s robotics arm used its September 19 “919” event to put numbers on a new lineup. Unlike most Western humanoid launches, these come with list prices and the company says all nine new devices are available to order now.
The headline model is the FF All-New Futurist, a full-size humanoid with 51 active degrees of freedom (71 with a dexterous-hand upgrade) and a dual-battery pack rated at roughly eight hours. The Standard is $89,900 and the Ultra, built on NVIDIA Jetson Thor with 700 TOPS, is $129,900. Each price includes a skills package the company values at $10,000 and $15,000 respectively, so read the sticker as hardware plus software bundle, not hardware alone.
At the other end, the FF Master Mini targets education and competition: about 95 cm tall, 19.5 kg, from $9,990 across three compute tiers (48, 117 and 200 TOPS). The company calls it the first compact humanoid under $10,000 in North America. The entry price is for the base configuration; the higher-compute tiers cost more.
What it means for the price map
A $89,900 full-size humanoid sits in the same band as other Western enterprise-leaning units, and about three times the entry price of the Unitree H2 ($29,900 and up). The Master Mini lands in the territory of Unitree R1 and other small Chinese humanoids, where price pressure is already intense. See Unitree for the low-cost benchmark.
Caveats
- These are announced list prices; we have no independent delivery data for these specific models. The company reported shipping 68 robots earlier in the year, which is small next to Chinese volume leaders.
- The Master Mini’s top configurations are not priced in the release, so the “from” figure is a floor.
- Faraday has also warned investors about financing risk, a factor to weigh for after-sales support.
We list both models as for-sale at the manufacturer’s stated prices.
