Shop the Full Automower RangeWhich Husqvarna Automower Should I Buy in 2026?
The best Automower depends on three things: lawn size, installation method and how much smart control you want. For straightforward lawns, the wired 305, 310 and 315 are the value-led choices. For newer smart models, compare the GPS WiFi 308 and 312. For premium 2026 setups, look at the 405VE, 410VE, 430V and 450V. For commercial mowing, move to the 560 EPOS or 580 EPOS.
1. Start with lawn size
Choose a mower with enough capacity to cope during the growing season, especially on complex lawns.
2. Choose the install type
Wired models use a boundary wire. GPS WiFi models offer newer smart control. NERA and EPOS models suit premium or larger installations.
3. Match the customer type
Domestic gardens, estates, sports turf and commercial grounds all need different levels of mower capacity and setup support.
| Customer Need | Best Product Group | Models to Compare |
|---|---|---|
| Lowest-cost reliable robotic mowing | Wired Automower | 305, 310, 315 |
| Modern domestic model with GPS using WiFi | GPS WiFi Automower | 308, 312 |
| Premium domestic and estate lawns | 2026 GPS / NERA models | 405VE, 410VE, 430V, 450V |
| Large-scale commercial mowing | Commercial EPOS | 560 EPOS, 580 EPOS |
Best Husqvarna Automower by Lawn Size
Lawn size remains the quickest way to shortlist a model, but it should be combined with installation type. A simple medium lawn may suit a wired mower, while a complex premium lawn may justify a GPS / NERA model.
| Lawn / Site Type | Recommended Models | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Small to medium domestic lawns | 305 or 308 | Good entry point depending on whether the customer wants wired value or GPS WiFi functionality. |
| Medium domestic lawns | 310 or 312 | More capacity than entry models and a sensible choice for growing-season headroom. |
| Larger domestic lawns | 315, 405VE or 410VE | Useful where the lawn needs extra capacity or the customer wants a newer premium platform. |
| Large premium lawns and estates | 430V or 450V | Designed for customers who need higher output, smarter navigation and a premium mowing solution. |
| Commercial grounds and sports turf | 560 EPOS or 580 EPOS | Commercial-grade EPOS machines for large-area robotic mowing. |
Wired vs GPS WiFi vs NERA vs EPOS Automower

| Wired boundary installation | 305, 310, 315 | Value-led domestic installations | Reliable, proven and cost-effective. |
| GPS using WiFi | 308, 312 | Modern domestic customers wanting smart control | A step up from traditional wired-only models. |
| 2026 GPS / NERA | 405VE, 410VE, 430V, 450V | Premium domestic lawns and estates | Higher-spec robotic mowing for complex or larger gardens. |
| Commercial EPOS | 560 EPOS, 580 EPOS | Large commercial areas and sports turf | Professional wire-free robotic mowing at scale. |
Best Husqvarna Automower for Domestic Gardens
For most domestic customers, the shortlist will be the wired 305, 310 and 315, the GPS WiFi 308 and 312, or the premium 405VE and 410VE. Larger domestic lawns and estates should look at the 430V and 450V.
Best value wired route
Choose 305, 310 or 315 if the customer wants proven Automower performance with a traditional boundary wire.
Best modern smart route
Choose 308 or 312 if the customer is asking for GPS using WiFi and a newer domestic platform.
Best premium route

Husqvarna Automower 2026 Model Comparisons
These comparison sections can later be split into standalone SEO pages. For now, they give customers fast decision support inside one combined guide.
Automower 305 vs 310 vs 315
The wired models are the value backbone of the range. The 305 suits smaller domestic lawns, the 310 gives a step up in capacity, and the 315 is the stronger choice for larger wired installations.
Automower 308 vs 312
The 308 and 312 are the key GPS using WiFi models. Position the 308 for smaller to medium smart installations and the 312 where the customer needs more capacity.
Automower 405VE vs 410VE
The 405VE and 410VE are premium 2026 GPS / NERA models for customers who want newer technology and a higher-spec mower than the wired or GPS WiFi range.
Automower 430V vs 450V
The 430V and 450V are the premium large-lawn options. Use this comparison for customers with larger gardens, estates or more demanding layouts.
Automower 560 EPOS vs 580 EPOS
The 560 EPOS and 580 EPOS are commercial machines. Position the 560 EPOS for large grounds and the 580 EPOS for the biggest or most demanding commercial and sports turf sites.
What Is Husqvarna EPOS?
EPOS is Husqvarna’s professional wire-free positioning system. It is most important when discussing the commercial 560 EPOS and 580 EPOS, and it also supports the broader premium wire-free conversation around NERA models.
No physical perimeter wire
EPOS allows virtual boundaries instead of a traditional buried or pegged perimeter wire.
Ideal for large areas
Commercial EPOS is especially useful across estates, sports pitches, schools, business parks and grounds maintenance sites.
Professional setup matters
Correct survey, mapping and commissioning are essential for reliable performance.

Installation method is one of the biggest buying decisions. Wired models need a physical boundary wire. GPS WiFi, NERA and EPOS models need careful setup, app connection and site planning.
Wired installation: 305, 310 and 315
- Survey the lawn and identify obstacles, beds, ponds and edges.
- Choose a suitable charging station position.
- Install the boundary wire around the mowing area.
- Install guide wire where needed for reliable docking and area coverage.
- Test the system before finalising the cable layout.
GPS WiFi and premium model setup
- Confirm the correct product group: 308/312, 405VE/410VE/430V/450V, or EPOS commercial.
- Check WiFi, app setup and customer expectations before installation.
- Map mowing areas and adjust settings for zones, schedules and cutting height.
- Train the customer on the app and basic maintenance.
Commercial EPOS setup
For the 560 EPOS and 580 EPOS, the sale should be treated as a site project rather than a simple mower purchase. Site size, signal suitability, mowing zones, charging location and maintenance access all matter.
