New Husqvarna Battery Chainsaws Set a New Standard for Power and Performance

Husqvarna sets a new standard for battery powered chainsaws with the launch of two new products. The Husqvarna T540i XP® top-handle and Husqvarna 540i XP® rear-handle chainsaws have been designed and developed together with professional arborists and feature an optimized system to deliver the next step in battery performance.

The new chainsaws feature a ground-up new design and are developed with professional users in mind. Used with the newly released Husqvarna batteries, the new chainsaws have capabilities equivalent to professional 40cc class petrol chainsaws, making them ideal for tree removals and smaller felling tasks. With the completely redesigned, optimized system, power has been increased by more than 30 percent compared to previous Husqvarna battery chainsaws, opening up for applications that have been exclusive for petrol chainsaws.

Andreas Rangert, Vice President for the Tree Professional unit at Husqvarna said “This is the most exciting battery launch we’ve had in many years, and I am confident these chainsaws will be game changers. The new saws have been designed for cutting capacity and convenience for the user, meaning the battery power is complemented by manoeuvrability, ergonomics and a user-friendly interface with quick control.”

Easy handling with new user-friendly interface

A tree care professional’s work position can be 20 meters in the air, in the bucket or on the ground therefore arborists need a tool that’s been designed for versatility and easy handling. The new Husqvarna chainsaws have an advanced, user-friendly interface for quick control, and balanced saw bodies that provide the maneuverability needed for difficult cuts. The battery status is easily visible on the newly developed intuitive interface and the chainsaw starts and stops at the press of a button. The absence of direct emissions is one of the benefits with a battery powered chainsaw. The user is also subject to less noise and less vibrations, which equals less strain on the body.
