Fastest humanoid robot: sourced answer
People ask for one champion. HumanoidPodium answers by discipline with a public source_url on every row. For 100 m finals, the current sourced leader is Tiangong Ultra at 8.64 s.
Fastest on this ledger (by event)
- 100 m final: Tiangong Ultra 8.64 s (2026 World Humanoid Robot Games large group, AP). Heat and semifinal stay on other rows.
- 400 m large group: Tiangong Ultra 38.15 s �� see humanoid robot 400 m record.
- Half marathon autonomous: Honor Lightning 50:26 (2026 Beijing E-Town) �� see half marathon 2026.
Why one ��world��s fastest robot�� list lies
Mixing 100 m, 400 m, half marathon, and football places into one speed ranking hides control mode, size group, and year rules. News copy often collapses those into a single headline. This site does not.
