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 HRN-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.
Intuitive, variable speed control while mowing. Five adjustable positions for user comfort. Variable speed from 0 to 3.8 mph.
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.
Simply slide the Clip Director for mulching, bagging, or discharging versatility. No attachments required.
Easily adjust the handle to 2 comfortable mowing positions, or fold over for storage.
User-friendly levers conveniently adjust to 7 cutting heights (1" to 4")
Innovative Honda design optimizes air flow for superior mulching and bagging
Excellent traction in a variety of mowing conditions.
Our large capacity grass bags are balanced so they are easy to empty, saving you time and effort.
Unlike many battery powered mowers, 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 mower is designed for the long haul, not as a throw away.
You can rest easy, knowing your lawn mower is covered from top to bottom for 3 full years.
