Husqvarna unveils AWD robotic mower
Husqvarna reinvents robotic mowing, as the company unveils the all-wheel drive robotic mower, Husqvarna Automower® 535 AWD.
The quiet, connected, mountain climbing lawnmower is designed for professional use, and manages 70% inclines and rough terrain – with zero direct emissions and top performance.
The first robotic mower from Husqvarna was launched in 1995, now it’s time for the next game changer. Husqvarna Automower® 535 AWD, is built on a completely new platform that takes slope handling to another level, increasing safety and productivity for professional greenspace teams, whilst also contributing to city health. With the new all-wheel drive system and articulated steering, this battery powered robotic mower handles slopes with an incline up to 70 % (35 º) as well as rough terrain and bumpy lawns.
Full automation and connectivity in the machines helps save time for landscaping teams. Cutting times, cutting height and more is managed via the mobile app Automower® Connect (available for Android and iOS), and the performance, locations and machine health of an entire fleet of Husqvarna robotic mowers can be tracked via the software solution Husqvarna Fleet Services™.
“Husqvarna Automower® 535 AWD is a game changer for professional lawn care, enabling landscaping teams to work safer and smarter, whilst contributing to city health by reducing noise and carbon emission to minimum levels. We have yet to find a lawn it can’t handle,” says Sascha Menges, President of Husqvarna Division.
The Husqvarna Automower® 535 AWD robotic mower operates at 62 dB and manages lawn sizes of up to 3 500 square meters. The machine is also equipped with a remote object detection feature, Ultrasonic, which means that the Husqvarna Automower® 535 AWD robotic mower reduces speed as soon as it senses a nearby object. For extra robustness, wheel brushes and a rubber bumper has been added to the body.
The Husqvarna Automower® 535 AWD will be available from spring 2019 at RRP 5199 Euro.
