Honda has announced four handheld tools for its 58V commercial outdoor-equipment platform: a backpack blower, chainsaw, string trimmer and hedge trimmer. The tools are scheduled to arrive in spring 2027; Honda has published specifications and prices, but their real-world performance has not yet been independently tested.
Honda has announced four commercial lawn-care tools for its 58V battery platform: the HBBX7550 backpack blower, HHCX1650 chainsaw, HHTX1750 string trimmer and HHHX2650 hedge trimmer. The lineup extends Honda’s battery-powered equipment range for professional landscapers, but the tools are not expected to be available until spring 2027, according to Pro Tool Reviews’ report on the announcement.
The published lineup spans four common landscaping jobs. Honda lists the backpack blower at up to 750 cubic feet per minute (CFM), 200 mph and 33 newtons of blowing force. With two 12.0Ah batteries, the company estimates up to 35 minutes of runtime on high and up to 10 hours on the lowest setting. Those are manufacturer figures, not independent test results. The blower weighs 21 pounds without batteries and 38.8 pounds with the two recommended batteries.
The 16-inch HHCX1650 chainsaw is rated for a 14-inch cutting capacity and chain speeds up to 26 metres per second. Honda describes its output as equivalent to a 50cc gas chainsaw. A kit with a 5.0Ah battery is listed at up to 33 minutes at maximum speed; the source also reports Honda estimates of about 20 cuts through a 10-inch log or 178 cuts through a 4-by-4 pile. The saw includes metal bucking spikes, a kickback brake and a lock-off button.
The HHTX1750 string trimmer has a 17-inch cutting swath, a maximum speed of 5,700 rpm and a 1,200-watt rated output. Honda compares it with a 26cc gas trimmer and estimates 25 minutes of runtime in Normal mode or 45 minutes in Eco mode using its 4.0Ah kit battery. The HHHX2650 hedge trimmer has a 26-inch cutting length and a stated capacity of up to 1⅓ inches. Pro Tool Reviews reports that it also offers Normal and Eco modes, but the supplied report does not give further runtime figures for that model.
A Larger Battery Lineup for Crews
For landscaping businesses, the announcement adds more kinds of equipment to a shared 58V platform that Honda began introducing with its battery mowers. If the tools perform as rated, crews may be able to use the same battery family across mowing, blowing, cutting and trimming work. That could make battery compatibility and the cost of batteries and chargers relevant when comparing a switch from gas equipment.
The announcement is also notable because Honda’s move into cordless commercial tools follows its exit from the gas lawn mower market in 2023, as described by Pro Tool Reviews. The published prices provide an early basis for comparison: bare-tool prices range from $409 for the string trimmer to $699 for the blower. However, price and specification sheets cannot establish how the equipment will hold up through a full workday or across demanding commercial use.

Honda’s 58V Platform So Far
Honda’s 58V system first appeared with battery-powered mowers released earlier in 2026, according to the source report. The new handheld products broaden that platform beyond mowing. Honda is also adding 2.5Ah, 4.0Ah and 5.0Ah batteries to the 8.0Ah and 12.0Ah options that launched with the mowers, giving buyers more capacity choices for different tools and workloads.
Pro Tool Reviews reports the following announced prices: the blower is $699 bare or $1,379 as a kit with two 12.0Ah batteries and a two-port rapid charger. The chainsaw is $419 bare or $829 with a 5.0Ah battery and standard charger. The string trimmer is $409 bare or $549 with a 4.0Ah battery and standard charger. The source material does not provide the hedge trimmer’s price.
“The backpack blower delivers up to 750 CFM, air speeds of up to 200 MPH and up to 33 N of blowing force.”

Performance Still Awaits Testing
The tools have not yet reached the reported release window, so independent hands-on results are not available. Real-world runtime can vary with material, workload, battery condition and operating mode. The source provides estimates for several models but not a complete set of comparable test conditions.
Some product details also remain absent from the supplied report, including the hedge trimmer’s price and runtime, and the exact date in spring 2027 when sales will begin. Honda’s warranty terms are listed as two years for commercial use and five years for residential use for the blower, chainsaw and string trimmer; the source does not state warranty details for the hedge trimmer.
Release Details Expected Before 2027
The next major milestone is the stated spring 2027 availability window. Before then, Honda or retailers may provide firm launch dates, final product listings and additional details, including pricing or runtime information not included in the current report. Buyers evaluating the platform will also be able to compare the announced specifications with independent testing once production tools are available.
Until those details emerge, the confirmed development is the announcement of four products and their published headline specifications—not proof of commercial performance. Crews considering the tools should check final battery and charger compatibility, kit contents, availability and warranty terms for each model before making purchasing decisions.
