On October 23, 2025, Unitree Robotics achieved a significant milestone by completing its renaming process. The company's official name has transitioned from 'Hangzhou Unitree Robotics Co., Ltd.' to the more streamlined 'Unitree Robotics Co., Ltd.' In conjunction with this corporate rebranding, Wang Xingxing has been elevated from a director responsible for executing company affairs to the esteemed position of chairman.

During the pivotal renaming phase of the company, Wang Xingxing took the opportunity to make a notable announcement at the IROS 2025 conference. He disclosed that the third humanoid robot in their lineup, the R1, which was unveiled earlier, has now reached a stage of readiness for mass production. The company anticipates that shipments of the R1 will commence between the end of this year and the early part of the next year, marking a new era in the field of robotics.
