MOVA Showcases Broad Smart Cleaning Lineup at CES 2026

At CES 2026, MOVA presented a broad lineup of cleaning products spanning robot vacuums, wet and dry vacuums, and cordless stick vacuums. The booth highlighted the company’s expanding focus on automated, modular, and specialized floorcare solutions. Front and center was the MOVA Mobius 60, a mop-switching robot vacuum, supported by several cordless vacuums and hard floor cleaners emphasizing heated cleaning, automated maintenance, and compact design.

MOVA Mobius 60 Mop-Switching Robot Vacuum

The Mobius 60 served as the centerpiece of MOVA’s CES presence and was demonstrated repeatedly throughout the show. Its core feature is an automated mop-switching system that allows the robot to change mop pads at the dock based on cleaning zones within a home. MOVA positioned this approach as a way to support more segmented, task-specific mopping rather than relying on a single pad for all rooms.

Our Take on the MOVA Mobius 60


The Mova Mobius 60 is a premium robot vacuum-mop combo built for hands-off cleaning, pairing up to 30,000Pa suction with a MopSwap™ system that can automatically select among three interchangeable pads (ThermoHold for greasy kitchens, Plush for wood floors, and HyperClean for all-around use). It boosts carpet pickup with a pressure-retention baffle, uses triple anti-tangle mechanisms for hair, and employs StepMaster 2.0 retractable legs to clear obstacles up to 80mm (about 3.14″). FlexScope™ navigation uses a retractable sensor for better low-clearance reach, while AI SmartSight with a structured-light 3D scanner (plus LED fill light) can recognize 240+ obstacles. For edge work, the side brush extends and lifts 10mm, and the RoboSwing mop extends with a 10.5mm lift to avoid carpets. The all-in-one base auto-empties into a 3.2L bag, auto-refills, and hot-washes pads at up to 212°F, with JetSpray Dryboard nozzles, 100°C PTC heating, UV sterilization, and dust-bag drying; onboard capacity includes a 6,400mAh battery, 300mL dust box, and 5.5L/4.0L clean/used-water tanks, plus “Hey, MOVA” voice control.
