Designed with the residential user in mind, the two HRR216 models offer even more flexibility for those who take pride in their lawns. Available in Push and Self-Propelled models from just $599, both feature Honda’s new Clip Director 3-in-1 system, which allows users to either mulch, bag or discharge clippings with just one touch.
For those with a medium-to large yards, or for contractors in the market for a competitively-priced mower, the two HRX217 Mulch & Catch models offer just the right balance between domestic flexibility and commercial power. With a whopping 88-litre catcher bag – the biggest Honda has ever offered – and an incredibly tough NeXite cutting deck, the HRX217 Recoil Start ($1,299) and Electric Start ($1,449) models are lightweight but tough enough to handle even the most trying of terrains.
Another new feather in Honda’s hat is the HRC216. Powered by Honda’s GSV160 commercial engine it’s equipped with Honda’s MicroCut twin-blade system resulting in grass clippings so fine, the professional contractor will fit up to 30% more clippings in every bag. The HRC216 ($1,099) also features mulching capability, a steel deck and an 88-litre catching bag, meaning more clients can be serviced and less time is wasted emptying the catcher bag.
Finally, the HRS216 Side Chute lawnmower’s unique design allows hassle-free mowing, with a convenient side chute or mulching option enabling users to return their grass clippings back into the soil with every mow. At $599, it represents a new price benchmark for Honda, offering more people than ever the chance to own a Honda.
“With 17 mowers now wearing the Honda badge,” Honda Power Equipment’s General Manager, Victor Colcott said, “no matter what kind of lawn you’ve got, there’s a Honda just for you. Domestic or commercial, there’s never been this much choice in Honda’s range.”
All new models feature 21” cutting decks and are powered by Honda’s world-beating engines. All are backed by Honda’s network of 450 dealers Australia-wide and come with a standard two-year domestic warranty.
