Luna vs GR-2: which robot wins?

LimX Dynamics's Luna against Fourier's GR-2 — price, capability, availability, and a verdict you can act on.

WHICHBOT SCORE	7 / 10	7.6 / 10
OUR TAKE	The first full-size humanoid built to be looked at rather than put to work. Fabric-wrapped, 27 degrees of freedom, and a motion stack that does runway walks and full splits. It will not do a single chore.	The care-focused humanoid. Born from a rehab-robotics company, GR-2 bets that the killer app is helping humans, not just lifting boxes.

Detailed comparison: Luna vs GR-2

Luna scores 7/10 in our independent evaluation; GR-2 scores 7.6/10. That 0.5999999999999996-point gap is real but not decisive — Luna may still be the right fit depending on your use case.

Luna is best for: Malls, theme parks, trade shows and brand activations that need a crowd to stop walking. GR-2 is best for: Healthcare innovators and labs exploring robots that work with people, not around them.

Our scoring weighs five factors: autonomous capability, independent verification (third-party evidence scores higher than manufacturer claims), commercial deployment scale, price-to-capability ratio, and real-world availability today. Neither robot here is scored on marketing alone. Luna and GR-2 are both worth evaluating — the right call depends on which robot's documented strengths match your actual workflow.

WHICHBOT VERDICT

If you're a consumer, this one decides itself: Luna is the only one of the two you can realistically get — GR-2 is commercial-only. GR-2 may score higher on raw capability, but a robot you can't buy scores zero in your living room.
