Husqvarna Panthera Leo: keeping lawns trim... Introducing the future of lawnmowers: the Husqvarna Panthera Leo

Forget concept cars. We’re all about concept lawnmowers. Check out this one from Husqvarna (the guys behind the Automower robot lawnmowers). It’s called the Panthera Leo, and will have everyone else with a lawn on your road grass green with envy!

Okay, forget the Thundercats-sounding name for a minute (ask your parents kids), the Husqvarna Panthera Leo has paddles on the wheel – not for adjusting speed unfortunately – but for adjusting three independent mowing blades. It also has an LCD display for viewing speed and obstacle proximity and a rechargeable battery that will keep it mowing the green stuff for a whopping two hours. It even rotates around its own axel for easy turning in tight areas.

Okay, so it’s only a concept for now, but knowing Husqvarna’s eye for creating futuristic mowers, we wouldn’t be surprised to see the Panthera Leo gracing lawns in the near future.
