Husqvarna Group has secured conditional approval from the FCC for four robotic lawn mower models intended for the U.S. market. The approved models include the Automower 305V iQ, 310V iQ, 420V iQ, and 440V iQ, which are set to launch in 2027 and are exempt from the FCC Covered List. This approval is significant as it marks Husqvarna as the first robotics company to receive such conditional approval for foreign-manufactured advanced robotic devices. The U.S. market accounted for 24% of Husqvarna's total net sales in 2025, indicating the importance of this market for the company's growth strategy. Looking ahead, Husqvarna aims to capitalize on the U.S. market's growth potential, particularly in residential robotic lawn mowing, where penetration remains limited. The company currently serves over 500 golf courses with its professional mowing solutions, highlighting its established presence in the sector.
