Electric lawn mowers
If you are looking for a light and user-friendly mower with low noise and low maintenance, a cordless electric mower is the optimal choice. Look forward to pleasant and smooth lawn care without the need to refuel petrol or change the oil, belts and spark plugs. Several battery lawn mowers from Husqvarna also feature a dual battery compartment, which means you can work longer before it's time to charge. There is also the possibility to extend the runtime even more with the savE® mode, which is perfect for mowing tasks that do not require full power. When mowing in tough conditions, the Power Boost feature automatically increases the blade speed for extra power. Last but not least, our electric lawn mowers do not emit CO₂ emissions during use.
Petrol lawn mowers
Husqvarna petrol lawn mowers offer the power to handle demanding mowing tasks and to run the product for extended periods. Our range includes several mowers that can tackle bigger lawns, and just like with the battery lawn mowers, you can choose between push and self-propelled models.
