Honda is working on the world's fastest lawn mower, which will reach speeds of up to 150mph (240 km/h).

The 'Mean Mower V2' features a 999cc engine that is capable of churning out 189 horsepower and sending the garden vehicle from 0-60mph in less than three seconds.

That makes the Mean Mower V2 is more powerful than the base model Audi A3 (103 bhp) and quicker than a Ferrari 488 (0-60 mph in 3.0 seconds).

Seems like this should link to The Onion. Makes about as much sense as a 150mph moving walkway.

Unless it can corner at 90 degree angles, I can’t use it at that speed.

Are they insane? Are they going to put roll bars and air bags on it? Have they ever witnessed red necks drinking beer and cutting their yard? Have they seen some of these yards?

Sounds like lawsuit city to me.

If they could fit it with a 75mm gun that would really be something.

Why?

We have weeds in our pasture that I have to mow slowly or the blades just sweep over them.
