Meet the new Dyson vacuums: V16 Piston Animal, V10 Konical, V8 Cyclone (2026)

Dyson vacuum range He had a new look planned this year. Some vacuums have already arrived, like the Dyson PencilVac and Dyson Spot+Scrub robot vacuums, but others we’re still waiting to see. That wait is over as of this month, as Dyson has finally dropped the rest of its anticipated models.

Dyson now has three new vacuums you can shop, plus one with a submarine head variant: the Dyson V16 Piston Animal ($980), Dyson V16 Piston Animal Submarine ($1,100), Dyson V10 Konical ($500), and Dyson V8 Cyclone ($400). On top of the other vacuum cleaners launched by the brand this year, the Dyson lineup is bigger than ever.

Here’s what’s different about each of the new models, what’s coming next, and whether or not it’s time to start shopping for a new Dyson vacuum.

Dyson calls the V16 Piston Animal ($980) its most powerful cordless vacuum yet. It has 315W suction power and the new 900W Dyson Hyperdymium motor. There’s a new cleaner head – the All Floor Cones Sense – with conical brush bars that look a bit like the PencilVac Fluffycones, with a similar design and color scheme. The All Floor Cones Sense head also promises to detect changes in floor type and respond automatically (hence the “Sense”). It also still comes with the Fluffy Optic cleaner head for hard floors, as seen in the V15 Detect and Gen5detect.

The V16 Piston Animal also has a debris box that can compress dust and debris, allowing it to keep up to 30 days. It also now has an unloading mechanism that allows you to push the debris out, making emptying easier. Dyson has promised a self-discharging docking station for this model, but it is not yet available; Dyson says it will be available for purchase in the future.

There’s also a Submarine version that retails for $1,100. This version adds a wet rotating head similar to the V15 Detect Submarine, but Dyson says this version has new wet control technology to use water more targetedly while cleaning, and a boost mode when dealing with stains.

The Dyson V10 Konical ($500) is Dyson’s first self-emptying vacuum, but the bulky docking station you’ll sometimes see pictured with it — the auto-emptying Dok, which will retail for $150 — won’t be available for purchase until August.
