Chery is widening its technology push in Indonesia with AiMOGA, a humanoid and service robot platform built around artificial intelligence. The company is no longer presenting robotics as a display item alone, but as a system intended for practical roles in customer service, healthcare, education, and public-facing operations.
At the center of that plan is Mornine, a humanoid robot designed for direct interaction with people. Chery has also introduced Argos, a robot dog that expands AiMOGA’s reach into family companionship, education, and commercial use.
What Mornine is built to do
Mornine is the most visible example of AiMOGA’s service ambitions. The humanoid robot stands 167 centimeters tall, weighs about 70 kilograms, and carries 40 Degree of Freedom, or DOF, for more flexible movement that is closer to human motion.
That design supports a range of service tasks. According to AIMOGA Deputy Director of International Business Sam Kwok, Mornine can handle customer-facing duties, speak more than 10 languages, provide information, and even serve drinks.
The combination of physical movement and conversational ability is why the robot is being positioned for dealership sales support and interactive customer service. In a retail environment, those functions could make Mornine part of the front line rather than a novelty on display.
Healthcare and public-service roles are also in development
AiMOGA’s roadmap goes beyond car showrooms. The company is developing a nursing robot for hospital environments, with functions aimed at helping patients locate the right clinic area, offering basic information, and supporting navigation inside hospitals.
Another concept under development is a traffic police robot. That role is intended to help manage vehicle flow while reducing the risks faced by officers working on the road.
These directions show that Chery and AiMOGA are targeting more than the automotive market. They are also looking at service sectors where consistent, safe, and efficient interaction could matter just as much as technical novelty.
AI, camera systems, and LiDAR are core to the platform
AiMOGA robots rely on artificial intelligence combined with modern sensors, including cameras and LiDAR, to recognize their surroundings. That setup is meant to help the robots navigate and interact more accurately in busy places such as dealerships and hospitals.
The company also says AiMOGA can integrate with multiple AI models, including ChatGPT and DeepSeek. That integration is designed to strengthen communication and make human-machine interaction feel more natural across different service scenarios.
Argos follows a different path. The robot dog is designed as a family companion, while also being suitable for education and commercial use.
Why Indonesia matters to Chery’s robotics plan
AiMOGA sees Indonesia as a promising market for robotics and artificial intelligence development. That is why the country has been included in the company’s expansion plans in Southeast Asia.
Sam Kwok said the company’s focus is not limited to demonstrations of technology. AiMOGA wants to deliver robots that create practical value in everyday life.
To support that strategy, the company is leaning on Chery’s global network, which spans more than 130 countries and regions. AiMOGA believes that reach can help speed up robotics adoption across different markets.
In Indonesia, the company is also open to collaboration with private companies, the government, educational institutions, healthcare facilities, and research organizations. The goal is to build a robotics ecosystem that matches local market needs and creates room for more relevant use cases.
The robots have not yet entered general sales in Indonesia. Chery is still offering special-order opportunities for interested parties, while Head of Brand and Marketing of Chery Business Unit Arthur Panggabean said the prices have not been announced publicly.
That leaves AiMOGA in an early but notable stage of expansion, with Mornine and Argos serving as the first visible signs of how Chery wants to move from vehicles into service robots with broader real-world applications.
