There's no compromise with a Honda battery powered mower. Honda's powerful motor offers the same power and torque as our GCV series gas powered engines. It's ready to tackle the toughest mowing conditions. Our design features a forced air system that drives fresh air over key components inside the motor, allowing them to stay cooler and perform well in demanding outdoor operating conditions.
Honda's motor provides high torque that maintains RPMs to let the lawn mowers power through thick or tall grass and maintain a clean, even cut. In addition, the motors are designed to combine high power with mid-level power consumption while providing a superior cut and bag fill.
The HRX-BV comes standard with an 8 AH lithium-ion battery. Each 8 AH battery can power approximately 30 minutes of run time, or about 1/4 acre, depending on your mowing conditions. Optional 12AH batteries are also available, making it easy to extend your run time as needed.
Honda's battery features unique spring-loaded terminals. This patent-pending design helps maintain battery life by providing a tighter connection between the battery and lawn mower - reducing the potential for damage from misalignment.
Easily adjust the mower's speed to your stride by rotating the speed adjust dial. Then engage the Select Drive® control for intuitive, comfortable speed control. Variable speed from 0 to 4 mph.
Honda's revolutionary Versamow System™ allows you to mulch, bag, discharge, and shred leaves - or even a combination of mulching and bagging! Just slide the convenient Clip Director® knob to choose how much grass is bagged or mulched. No tools or costly attachments are needed. It's the ultimate in convenience and versatility.
Most battery powered mowers sacrifice cut quality for longer run times. But Honda's battery powered mowers don't compromise the look of your lawn. There's no need to mow twice to get a good looking lawn with a Honda. You'll see superior cut quality every time, just like you expect from a Honda mower.
Honda's exclusive twin blade MicroCut System® uses four cutting surfaces that result in ultra fine clippings for superior mulching and more clippings per bag. The end result? A perfect cut, less time emptying the bag, and less work for you.
The HRX's 21" deck is made of NeXite®. This high impact resistant material does not dent, rust, or corrode over time. Designed for superior air flow, the deck also improves your cut quality.
The Versamow System™ helps you to mulch or partially mulch even in severe conditions. Just adjust the 10 position Clip Director to the right setting for your lawn.
Smaller grass clippings mean more grass fits in the bag. So you can mow 30% farther before you have to empty the bag.
The HRX has a convenient rear discharge door that improves maneuverability, eliminating the need for a separate discharge chute attachment. Clippings are directed out the bottom at the rear of the mower.
The HRX design makes leaf shredding easy. Tiny pieces minimize the use of leaf bags for collecting debris. No attachments or tools are necessary.
The quick release handle is easy to adjust to one of 3 positions for comfortable mowing. Or fold it over for more compact storage.
Ball bearings in all four wheels offer better maneuverability, smoother drive, and increased durability.
Convenient height adjustment levers to set mowing height for lawn conditions.
Our large capacity grass bags are balanced so they are easy to empty, saving you time and effort.
Honda mowers are legendary for their reliability - and our new battery powered mowers are no exception. Honda uses high quality components and bearings to increase the durability of our mowers. Our patented battery design provides a better connection for better reliability and battery life.
Honda mowers are fully supported by our nationwide network of servicing dealers. A variety of parts are available, from the blades to the motor itself. Our battery powered mowers are designed with the same durability, quality, and reliability that you've come to expect from Honda.
Getting an early or late start? An LED headlight supports early morning and late afternoon mowing sessions.
You can rest easy, knowing your lawn mower is covered from top to bottom for 5 full years.
