Honda has announced four handheld tools for its 58V battery platform: a backpack blower, chainsaw, string trimmer and hedge trimmer. They are slated to arrive in spring 2027; the published specifications and prices are available, but independent hands-on results and some product details are not.
Honda has announced four handheld commercial lawn-care tools for its 58V battery platform: the HBBX7550 backpack blower, HHCX1650 chainsaw, HHTX1750 string trimmer and HHHX2650 hedge trimmer. The lineup is planned for spring 2027, adding equipment for professional landscapers to a platform that began with Honda’s battery-powered mowers.
According to Pro Tool Reviews, Honda lists the backpack blower at up to 750 CFM, 200 mph and 33 newtons of blowing force. With two 12.0Ah batteries, Honda estimates up to 35 minutes of runtime on high and up to 10 hours on low. The blower is listed at $699 bare or $1,379 in a kit with two 12.0Ah batteries and a two-port rapid charger.
The HHCX1650 chainsaw has a 16-inch bar, a stated 14-inch cutting capacity and chain speed of up to 26 metres per second. Honda describes its performance as equivalent to a 50cc gas saw. Prices are listed at $419 bare and $829 with a 5.0Ah battery and standard charger. The HHTX1750 string trimmer has a 17-inch cutting swath and a stated 1,200-watt output, which Honda compares with a 26cc gas trimmer. Its listed prices are $409 bare and $549 with a 4.0Ah battery.
The hedge trimmer, model HHHX2650, is listed with a 26-inch cutting length and a cutting capacity of up to 1⅓ inches. The source says it has Normal and Eco modes, but does not provide a price or full runtime details in the material supplied. Across the new lineup, Honda lists a two-year commercial warranty and a five-year residential warranty. The report also says Honda is adding 2.5Ah, 4.0Ah and 5.0Ah batteries to the platform, alongside 8.0Ah and 12.0Ah options introduced with its mowers.
A Broader Battery Line for Crews
The announcement gives commercial landscaping crews a clearer view of Honda’s planned battery-powered range beyond mowers. A shared 58V platform and several battery sizes could offer buyers more choices for matching tool weight, runtime and workload, though the source does not confirm compatibility details for every tool and battery combination.
Honda’s specifications position the tools against gas-powered equipment, including stated gas-equivalent comparisons for the chainsaw and trimmer. Those are manufacturer claims, not independent test results. For businesses weighing equipment purchases, real-world runtime, power under load, charging time, durability and battery costs will matter alongside listed prices. Those factors are not settled by the announcement.

Honda’s 58V Platform So Far
Honda announced in 2023 that it would leave the gas lawn mower market, citing environmental regulations and changing consumer preferences, according to the source report. The company has since introduced battery-powered mowers for residential and commercial users. The mowers released earlier in 2026 were described as the first products on Honda’s new 58V system.
The four handheld tools extend that system into blowing, cutting, trimming and hedge maintenance. The planned spring 2027 release means the announcement is an advance look, rather than evidence that the products are already available. Pro Tool Reviews said it had not yet conducted hands-on testing and would need to wait for the tools before reporting its own performance findings.
“The HBBX7550 offers up to 35 minutes of trigger time on high, up to 70 minutes in medium, and up to 10 hours on the lowest setting with two 12.0Ah batteries.”

Testing and Final Details Pending
The reported specifications and prices do not establish how the tools perform in sustained commercial use. Independent testing has not been reported, and Honda’s runtime and gas-equivalence figures are company estimates or claims. The source does not give complete pricing and runtime information for the hedge trimmer, nor does it specify all battery-and-tool kit combinations.
Spring 2027 is the stated availability window, but the material does not give exact on-sale dates, regional availability or whether that schedule could change. It also remains unclear how the tools will compare with competing commercial battery equipment on total ownership cost, including batteries and chargers.

Release and Testing in 2027
The next expected milestone is the tools’ planned spring 2027 release. Before purchase decisions, commercial buyers will need confirmed availability, final retail details and product documentation, particularly for the hedge trimmer and battery compatibility.
Hands-on testing after launch can help assess whether the listed power and runtime figures translate to job-site performance. Until then, the specifications provide an early outline of Honda’s commercial lineup, not a completed comparison with gas tools or other battery platforms.
