Autel Energy New Product Debut at CES 2026
Focusing on two key domains — Smart Energy and Smart Inspection — the company is unveiling a range of new products. In Smart Energy, Autel is introducing V2G (Vehicle-to-Grid) AC charger for homes and DC charging solution for fleets, strengthening its multi-tier energy touchpoint strategy from households to commercial operations. Live demonstrations at the booth will feature a smart charging robot showcasing automated plug-in capabilities. In Smart Inspection, Autel will debut its “Embodied Collective Intelligence Solution,” featuring wheeled inspection robots. Together, these innovations present a complete intelligent ecosystem spanning from homes to stations, hardware to cloud, and extending from energy replenishment to infrastructure operation and maintenance, addressing both the growing power demand of AI workloads and the operational efficiency challenges of large-scale infrastructure.
Strategic Energy Ecosystem Solution: Building a More Dispatchable and Stable Energy Network
The Smart Energy product family addresses diverse charging needs across home, fleet, destination, and high-power station scenarios. For homes, the V2G-capable MaxiCharger AC Compact Gen 2 enables energy assetization, allowing users to interact with the grid and optimize electricity costs. For fleets and businesses, the compact MaxiCharger DC50 DC fast charger, equipped with Autel's self-developed SiC high-efficiency power module, offers flexible deployment in under 0.2 cubic meters to maximize customer benefits. For large stations, the MaxiCharger DH480 delivers up to 480kW single output with over 98% uptime, successfully deployed at scale across various large sites in North America. Together, the AC and DC chargers demonstrate mature engineering and delivery capabilities, forming a comprehensive charging solution from residential to commercial uses.
Embodied Intelligence Moves Toward Infrastructure
On-site, Autel is showcasing for the first time the high-level synergy between its smart charging robot, Avant, and its charging stations, extending that foundation into a wider, end-to-end energy-infrastructure offering. The Avant Robot autonomously identifies vehicle positions, precisely aligns with charging ports, and completes plug insertion, enabling 24/7 unattended charging. Combined with devices like the DC50, it provides a practical, automated energy replenishment path for fleets, commercial stations, and future autonomous vehicles.
In smart infrastructure inspection, Autel is revealing its new Embodied Collective Intelligence Solution. Designed for critical scenarios like campuses, energy facilities, industrial plants, and data centers, the inspection robots perform high-frequency monitoring tasks across parks, energy stations, bridges, and transport infrastructure. Utilizing semantic navigation (success rate ≥99%), dynamic obstacle avoidance (success rate >95%), and close-range data collection (autonomous approach positioning error ≤8cm), they conduct continuous monitoring of key equipment. Integrated with cloud-based AI analysis and task management systems, they form a closed-loop “inspect-detect-warn-handle” capability, empowering future infrastructure with self-understanding, self-scheduling, and self-healing properties.
Also making its debut at CES is Autel’s “Future City Panoramic Display Model”, which systematically integrates these capabilities. Covering typical urban infrastructure such as highways, PV-storage-charging stations, industrial parks, bridges, ports, and campuses, the model uses embodied collective intelligence and AI scheduling logic to demonstrate how energy replenishment, facility inspection, and urban operations can synergize, presenting a prototype of future cities evolving toward “automation, autonomy, and self-operation.”
Paving the Way Forward: Scaling AI from Strategy to Real-World Impact
Through its CES 2026 showcase, Autel has demonstrated the progressive outcomes of its “scenario-based” AI strategy across vertical industries. By advancing scalable, impactful solutions, Autel is shaping the future of smart infrastructure and urban development.
