Quick Answer
T-HR3 is Toyota’s third-generation humanoid — an avatar you wear from a cockpit, not a robot you send to work alone. Toyota does not sell it. Scoring a teleoperated research demo like a 9.0 product was the stencil again.

What it is
A Toyota research humanoid designed to mirror a human operator. Our profile leaves height, weight and payload unverified and notes runtime is often not applicable for tethered or demonstration setups.
What is published
Toyota announcements and CES-era coverage. Three reference links on our card. No MSRP, because there is no SKU.
Flaws
Without the operator it is a statue that can fall. The cloned autonomy-scale (Level 0–5) paragraph was the wrong instrument.
Real-world usefulness
Citation value for telepresence humanoids. Zero as a headcount replacement. If you want a consumer-facing Toyota story, it is not this robot.
