GOKO's M6 robotic mower uses 4WD, AI vision, and dual navigation to handle steep slopes, rough terrain, and large yards. A look at the tech that sets it apart.
GOKO unveiled the M6 robotic lawn mower at spoga+gafa 2026, a trade show in Cologne. The machine is built for yards that eat lesser mowers: steep slopes, uneven ground, muddy patches, and complex layouts with trees and flowerbeds.
The headlines come fast. A 4WD system handles inclines up to 42 degrees (90% grade). Independent front steering reduces turf wear on turns. Adaptive suspension keeps the blades stable over obstacles up to 7.5 centimeters. The recovery algorithm uses large-diameter tires to free itself when stuck.
Most consumer robotic mowers rely on a boundary wire and a single camera. The M6 stacks three sensing layers: AI quad-vision cameras that recognize over 200 objects (people, pets, toys, furniture, irrigation heads), RTK GPS for open-field positioning, and VSLAM visual navigation for areas where satellite signals drop under dense canopy. The cameras also include side views for narrow passages.
The cutting deck is 42 centimeters wide with mulching blades and a razor disc option. Dual motors deliver 250W × 2. Cutting height adjusts from 25 mm to 100 mm. The deck floats to follow contours.
Battery architecture is modular. A standard battery covers 2,000 square meters per charge. A dual-battery version doubles that to 4,000 square meters (about one acre). With recharging between sessions, GOKO rates the M6 for 8,000 square meters per day.
The app supports multiple mowing zones, per-zone height and schedule, stripe direction, no-go areas, geo-fencing, GPS tracking, and an off-ground alert. There is an ownership authentication feature.
GOKO has not announced pricing or release dates. The M6 is on display at the company's booth through the end of the trade show. The real test will come when units reach customers with actual steep lawns and muddy backyards.
