Honda has announced four handheld tools for its 58V battery platform: a backpack blower, chainsaw, string trimmer and hedge trimmer. The lineup is aimed at commercial landscapers and is scheduled to go on sale in spring 2027; published performance figures and prices come from Honda and the original report, and independent testing is not yet available.
Honda has announced four handheld lawn-care tools for its 58V battery platform, extending the system beyond the battery mowers introduced earlier in 2026. The backpack blower, chainsaw, string trimmer and hedge trimmer are aimed at commercial landscapers, but are not expected to be available until spring 2027.
The announced models are the HBBX7550 backpack blower, HHCX1650 chainsaw, HHTX1750 string trimmer and HHHX2650 hedge trimmer. Pro Tool Reviews reported the lineup and specifications, citing information from Honda. The figures are manufacturer-provided specifications, not results from independent hands-on testing.
Honda rates the blower at up to 750 CFM, 200 mph and 33 newtons of blowing force. With two 12.0Ah batteries, the company estimates up to 35 minutes of trigger time on high, 70 minutes on medium and 10 hours on the lowest setting. The reported prices are $699 for the bare tool and $1,379 for a kit with two 12.0Ah batteries and a two-port rapid charger.
The chainsaw has a 16-inch bar and a stated 14-inch cutting capacity. Honda says it is comparable in performance to a 50cc gas saw and lists a chain speed of up to 26 metres per second. Prices are reported at $419 bare or $829 with a 5.0Ah battery and standard charger. The string trimmer has a 17-inch cutting swath and a 1,200-watt rated output, which Honda compares with a 26cc gas trimmer; its reported prices are $409 bare and $549 with a 4.0Ah battery. Its estimated runtime is up to 25 minutes in Normal mode or 45 minutes in Eco mode.
A Wider Battery Line for Crews
The announcement gives professional landscaping crews more options within Honda’s 58V system, rather than limiting the platform to mowers. A shared battery family could be relevant to businesses weighing equipment purchases across several jobs, although the available information does not establish which batteries will be compatible with each tool or how crews should plan charging across a full workday.
The published figures also give buyers early points of comparison: airflow and force for the blower, bar length and claimed gas equivalence for the saw, and cutting width and mode-based runtime for the trimmer. Those numbers are useful for shortlisting equipment, but actual work output, runtime under load, durability and comfort remain unverified by independent testing.

Honda’s 58V Platform Expands
Honda announced in 2023 that it would exit the gas lawn mower market, citing environmental regulations and changing consumer preferences, according to Pro Tool Reviews. The company has since introduced battery-powered mowers for residential and commercial customers. Those mowers, released earlier in 2026, were the first products in Honda’s new 58V battery system.
The new handheld tools add smaller battery options to the platform. The report says Honda has announced 2.5Ah, 4.0Ah and 5.0Ah batteries, in addition to the 8.0Ah and 12.0Ah batteries introduced with the mowers. The reported product details include the hedge trimmer’s 26-inch cutting length and capacity for branches up to 1⅓ inches in diameter. The source material does not provide a price or runtime estimate for that model.
“The HBBX7550 is rated for up to 750 CFM, 200 mph and 33 N of blowing force.”

Testing and Hedge Trimmer Details
The tools have not yet reached the reported spring 2027 availability window, and independent hands-on results are not available in the source material. Honda’s performance and runtime figures should be treated as company estimates; real-world results can depend on workload, operating mode, battery condition and other factors.
Some product details are missing from the supplied report. It gives the hedge trimmer’s cutting length and maximum cut capacity, but not its price, weight, runtime, battery configuration or detailed operating specifications. It is also unclear whether the planned release date, prices or specifications could change before launch, and the source does not set out full battery compatibility across the platform.

More Details Before Spring 2027
The next milestone is the planned spring 2027 launch. Before then, prospective buyers will need final product information, including the hedge trimmer’s price and battery configuration, and confirmation of which batteries and chargers work across the lineup. Independent testing after the tools become available should provide evidence on runtime under load, cutting performance, handling and durability beyond Honda’s published figures.
For now, commercial crews can use the announced specifications and reported prices as preliminary planning information, not as a substitute for field testing or final availability details. Honda has not provided further timing or launch updates in the source material.
