The Future of Lawn Care: Here and Improving Every Day!
And it starts with the Husqvarna Automower®! First introduced in 1995 in Europe with the Solar/Turtle Mower - The world's first fully automatic lawn mower was launched. It created news headlines all over the world and generated great interest. The power supply with solar cells was unique for that time.
But things really took a turn when they improved it with the Second Generation Automower® was introduced. The design was all new and the technology was now better protected from the tough environment. New features were added and in 2013 they introduced larger capacity mowers that came with GPS assisted navigation. And these were the ones that were brought into Canada. By 2016, the 450X is launched! It handles complex gardens up to 5000m2 with a max incline of 45%. It comes standard with Automower® Connect, GPS assisted navigation and LED headlights.
Fast forward to 2019 with the introduction of the 435X AWD… the latest mower in the X-line range. The 435X AWD manages gardens up to 3500m2 and navigates obstacles, rough terrain and slopes up to 70% with ease. At the same time, Husqvarna launched several products with a higher cutting height compared to previous products. The premium segment 430XH, 450XH and the entry segment all-new 115H.
Each Husqvarna Automower® comes with a charging station, guide wires and boundary wires. The robot mower will automatically return to the charging station whenever it needs a charge. And the guide wires and boundary wires will keep the mower within the bounds of your property.
And here we are in 2024 with the introduction of the residential 450XH EPOS™ bundle with reference station, and the commercial 520 EPOS™. These latest models have gone beyond physical wire systems to virtual boundaries, allowing you to define several work areas of up to 1.25 acres. These mowers navigate easily in narrow passages and manage slopes up to 45%. Can also be handled with your smart phone to create new mowing patterns and gives you control of scheduling.
The future of Automower® looks great! – for the average homeowner and the commercial soccer field, and beyond! With the introduction of the CEORA™, the turf care professionals have just ‘upped’ their management of large green spaces.
