The Future of Lawn Care: Here and Improving Every Day!

The Evolution of Husqvarna Automower – A Robotic Lawn Care Revolution

Robotic lawn care has come a long way—and it all started with one groundbreaking idea. The journey of the Husqvarna Automower began back in 1995 with the introduction of the Solar/Turtle Mower, the world’s first fully automatic robotic lawn mower. Long before smart home technology became mainstream, Husqvarna was already reimagining outdoor maintenance. This solar-powered innovation caught global attention not only for its autonomous function but also for its environmentally-friendly power source—truly ahead of its time.

The Second Generation: Smarter, Tougher, Better

Husqvarna didn’t stop there. Building on the momentum, they launched the Second Generation Automower, introducing a completely redesigned model that could withstand even tougher outdoor environments. Enhanced with better weather protection and more robust technology, this version offered increased reliability and added features that appealed to a growing customer base.

By 2013, the next leap was made: high-capacity mowers with GPS-assisted navigation became available—perfect for larger and more complex lawns. These smarter mowers marked the entry of Automower into the Canadian market, bringing robotic lawn care to homeowners across the country.

The Rise of the 450X and Beyond

In 2016, Husqvarna unveiled the Automower 450X—a game-changer for those managing expansive and intricate properties. With the ability to handle lawns up to 5000m² and conquer slopes as steep as 45%, it quickly became the flagship for premium residential use. Built-in Automower Connect, LED headlights, and improved GPS navigation allowed homeowners to monitor and control their mower with ease, straight from their smartphone.

2019: AWD Technology Redefines Performance

Then came 2019, and with it, the impressive Automower 435X AWD—a fully articulated, all-wheel-drive robotic mower designed to tackle the most challenging terrain. Able to manage slopes of up to 70%, this powerhouse model redefined what robotic mowers could achieve. It also came at a time when Husqvarna was expanding its lineup to meet diverse customer needs, introducing models with higher cutting heights such as the 430XH, 450XH, and the value-friendly 115H—offering something for every lawn type and budget.

The Leap to EPOS Technology

Fast forward to 2024, and Husqvarna once again broke boundaries with the introduction of EPOS (Exact Positioning Operating System) technology. The residential 450XH EPOS bundle and the commercial-grade 520 EPOS represent a bold new era—mowing with virtual boundaries instead of physical wires. This advancement allows users to define multiple work areas of up to 1.25 acres and make real-time changes through their smartphone. Navigating narrow passages and handling slopes up to 45%, these mowers offer the ultimate flexibility and precision in lawn care management.

Welcome the Future: The IQ Series Automower (2025)

Now, stepping into 2025, Husqvarna introduces the IQ Series Automower—the pinnacle of innovation in robotic mowing. Designed with cutting-edge vision-based obstacle avoidance, real-time terrain mapping, and multi-zone management, the IQ Series acts more like a yard assistant than just a mower.

Powered by AI-enhanced route optimization and smart home integration (compatible with Alexa and Google Home), this model adapts to your lawn over time. It learns from your mowing habits, optimizes its path for efficiency, and receives wireless software updates to stay future-ready. Whether it’s a beautifully landscaped residential garden or a high-traffic commercial property, the IQ Series raises the bar for performance, customization, and convenience.

For the Pros: CEORA and the Next Level of Turf Care

And for turf care professionals and sports facilities, Husqvarna’s CEORA has taken the reins. Built for expansive, professional-level green spaces, CEORA represents the most advanced robotic solution yet. You'll even spot it in action at the world-class Spruce Meadows Sports Facility, where it keeps championship grounds in pristine condition.

From Solar-Powered to Smart AI: The Journey Continues

Each Husqvarna Automower comes complete with a charging station, guide wires, and boundary wires—unless you opt for the wireless EPOS models. The mower knows exactly when to recharge, returning automatically to the station as needed. Whether you're managing a modest suburban lawn or a sprawling estate, there's a model designed to make your life easier.
