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).

A man in my area was just run over by his mower, and died the past few days.

That’d make short work of my two and a half acres of open field.

Sure, it’s fast, but how well does it cut? :-D
If my mower went 30 miles per hour the deck would destroy itself trying to cope with the blade rotation speed necessary to still cut reliably at that speed. 150? Fuggetaboutit.
It would also need to corner on grass fairly well.

A lawn mover that can go 150 is no more a lawn mower than a “funny car” drag racer is really a “car” as we think of cars.

I do my 5 acres with a 7mph 60’ zero turn. It takes 2.5 hours and 2.5 gallons of gas. This used to be a hay field and is only now becoming nicely filled in lawn. But if my mower went any faster it would bounce right into orbit.

Nice. I picked up a 2003 21hp MTD Yard Machines mower a while back. Sold engine and does a great job with its 42” deck. Use nothing but non ethanol premium in it and it runs li k e a dream.
