Honda has announced four handheld tools for its 58V battery platform: a backpack blower, chainsaw, string trimmer and hedge trimmer. The tools are scheduled for spring 2027, and the published specifications and prices come from Pro Tool Reviews’ report; hands-on performance and several product details remain unverified.
Honda has announced four handheld tools for its 58V battery platform, expanding its cordless lawn-equipment range for commercial landscapers. The HBBX7550 backpack blower, HHCX1650 chainsaw, HHTX1750 string trimmer and HHHX2650 hedge trimmer are scheduled to become available in spring 2027, according to Pro Tool Reviews; the specifications and prices reported so far are manufacturer-provided, and the tools have not yet been tested hands-on by the outlet.
The lineup adds handheld equipment to Honda’s 58V system, which had already been used for battery-powered mowers released earlier in 2026, the report says. Honda is also adding 2.5Ah, 4.0Ah and 5.0Ah batteries to the platform, alongside 8.0Ah and 12.0Ah packs introduced with the mowers. Battery compatibility details for each tool and pack should be checked against final product information.
Honda lists the HBBX7550 backpack blower at up to 750 CFM, 200 mph and 33 N of blowing force. With two 12.0Ah batteries, Honda estimates up to 35 minutes of runtime on high, 70 minutes on medium and 10 hours on the lowest setting. The reported price is $699 bare or $1,379 for a kit with two 12.0Ah batteries and a two-port rapid charger. The blower weighs 21 pounds without batteries and 38.8 pounds with the two packs.
The HHCX1650 chainsaw has a 16-inch bar, a stated 14-inch cutting capacity and a chain speed of up to 26 meters per second. Honda rates it as equivalent in performance to a 50cc gas saw, a company claim rather than an independently verified test result. Its reported price is $419 bare or $829 with a 5.0Ah battery and standard charger. The HHTX1750 string trimmer has a 17-inch cutting swath and a reported price of $409 bare or $549 with a 4.0Ah battery; Honda estimates up to 25 minutes in Normal mode and 45 minutes in Eco mode.
Honda Expands Its 58V Tool Range
The announcement gives commercial crews a clearer picture of Honda’s plans for battery-powered handheld equipment, beyond its mower offerings. A shared 58V platform could be relevant to operators weighing battery costs and equipment choices across a fleet, although the report does not establish which packs work with each tool or whether the system will suit a particular crew’s workload.
Price and runtime estimates provide early points of comparison with other commercial equipment, but they do not show real-world productivity, durability, or total operating cost. The blower’s high-setting runtime, for example, is reported as an estimate with two large batteries; actual results may vary by conditions and use. Buyers will need independent testing and final product information before drawing firm conclusions about gas-equivalent performance.

From Mowers to Handheld Equipment
The report places the launch within Honda’s move toward battery-powered outdoor power equipment. Honda exited the gas lawn mower market in 2023, citing environmental regulations and changing consumer preferences, according to Pro Tool Reviews. In the years since, the company has introduced cordless mowers for residential and commercial users.
Those mowers, released earlier in 2026, were described as the first products on Honda’s 58V system. The new announcement extends that platform to four handheld categories. Pro Tool Reviews notes that its staff had not yet been able to share hands-on findings because the tools are not expected to reach the market until spring 2027.
“The HBBX7550 delivers up to 35 minutes of trigger time on high, up to 70 minutes in medium, and up to 10 hours on the lowest setting with two 12.0Ah batteries.”

Performance Testing Still Lies Ahead
The published specifications do not establish how the tools perform in field conditions. Independent testing has not been reported, and Honda’s runtime and gas-equivalence figures remain manufacturer claims in the source material. The report also does not give complete specifications for the HHHX2650 hedge trimmer, including its battery runtime, operating modes, weight and price.
Availability may change before launch, and the source does not specify exact release dates, regional availability, or final retail terms. It is also unclear which newly listed battery sizes will be included with each product or sold separately, and what the full compatibility and charging arrangements will be.

Spring 2027 Launch Details
The tools are scheduled for spring 2027, giving Honda time to publish final product specifications, availability and battery-kit details. Further information may clarify the hedge trimmer’s missing figures and whether the announced pricing applies across markets.
Hands-on reviews and field testing after the products become available will help confirm how the stated power, runtime and handling compare with Honda’s estimates. Until then, the announcement provides a preliminary product lineup rather than verified evidence of job-site performance.
