Introducing the Dyson V16 Piston AnimalTM vacuum

Dyson’s most powerful vacuum with all in one cleaner head and anti-tangle

India | 24 September 2026

Today, Dyson launched the V16 Piston Animal^TM cordless vacuum, Dyson’s most powerful anti-tangle cordless vacuum, designed to deliver uncompromising power, intelligent performance and effortless maintenance. The new All Floor Cones^TM Sense cleaner head features two brush bar cones that ejects even the longest hair, up to 25 inches in length, from the brush bar directly into the bin¹ as you clean, meaning no more cutting or pulling out hair of tangled brush bars.

It also features the new CleanCompaktor^TM bin that compresses dust and debris to hold up to 30 days of dust, with a new hygienic bin emptying mechanism that wipes the bin as you empty, so no dust or hair is left in the bin⁵.

Cleaning beyond what you can see

Dyson has spent almost two decades studying real household dust to better understand what is found in our homes and how people clean.

Dyson’s “How India Cleans” Study 2026¹¹ found that even with regular cleaning, key areas of our home are frequently missed. 51.6% of Indians say spaces under beds and furniture are often left uncleaned, while 47.5% says they struggle to effectively clean corners, edges and skirting boards, highlighting the challenge of reaching and cleaning areas that are harder to access.

“Today’s homes need cleaning solutions that keep up with busy lives, without compromising on performance. Dyson engineers solve the problems others ignore, and we thrive on the challenge of creating better technology. The Dyson V16 Piston Animal features a new dual conical brush bar cleaner head that detangles even the longest hair. A new motor delivers 315AW of powerful, fade-free suction, while sensors and smart brush technology automatically adapt cleaning performance across floor types. All these technologies combine into a single vacuum, offering a powerful, uninterrupted cleaning experience that adapts to real life messes.”

New All Floor Cones^TM Sense cleaner head

The new All Floor Cones^TM Sense cleaner head features two conical brush bars that capture even the longest hair² as it is picked up, preventing hair from wrapping and tangling around the brush bar. The conical shape encourages hair migration from the thicker ends in the middle to the thinner, outer ends, before being sucked up directly into the bin.

It intelligently adapts to different floor types³ and automatically adjusts brush bar rotation speeds, slowing down to delicately clean hard floors with improved acoustics, and speeding up for maximum agitation when cleaning carpets for optimal cleaning performance.

The cleaner head combines the high performance of the Dyson Digital Motorbar on carpets and Dyson Fluffy cleaner heads on hard floors into one solution, without needing to switch cleaner heads as you clean.
