1.1. Configurations and included components
The Zumo 2040 robot is available in several configurations:
- Zumo 2040 Robot Kit (No Motors) – requires assembly and soldering; can be customized with your choice of motors (not included)
- Zumo 2040 Robot (assembled with 50:1 HP motors)
- Zumo 2040 Robot (assembled with 75:1 HP motors)
- Zumo 2040 Robot (assembled with 100:1 HP motors)
In addition, the Zumo 2040 Main Board is available separately; it is primarily intended as a replacement part, but you can also use it to make your own Zumo 2040 robot if you do not want all of the parts included with our full kit.

The robot and chassis kit might include extra parts like jumper wires, screws, nuts, washers, and an acrylic spacer plate (which is not used in the Zumo 2040), so do not be concerned if you have some leftover hardware after assembling your Zumo.
Assembled Zumo 2040 robot
The assembled versions of the Zumo 2040 robot are complete, ready-to-program robot platforms built from the same components found in the Zumo 2040 Robot Kit; no soldering or assembly is required. A choice of three motor gear ratios offer different combinations of torque and speed.
Different versions of the assembled Zumo 2040 robots can be identified with a sticker on the underside of the main board, visible inside the battery compartment of the Zumo without batteries installed. The color of the sticker indicates the gear ratio of the robot’s motors:
- Green: 50:1 HP
- Blue: 75:1 HP
- Red: 100:1 HP
The assembled Zumo 2040 robot is fitted with wide-angle IR emitter LEDs (clear); the narrow-angle LEDs (blue) are not included.
