Mowing the lawn has never been anyone’s favorite task—just ask the gardener at my dad’s workplace—but the 2026 lineup of mowers might change that. Self-propelled machines can be tricky to handle, and one wrong nudge on the throttle can throw off your balance or control.
If you’re a true coach potato, you don’t even have to lift a finger. Robotic mowers take care of large lawns with minimal supervision, handle the annoyances that older models couldn’t, and let you kick back while your yard gets done. Here’s a look at the best lawn mowers to look forward to in 2026.
I appreciate that the Worx Vision Cloud 2WD skips the tight yard rules that the Vision model needs. That older unit asks for clear borders on four sides from walks, drives, or a house. The Vision Cloud 2WD, meanwhile, offers more flexibility, which should benefit homeowners with irregular lots or open lawn boundaries.
At the core of the Vision Cloud 2WD sits Vision AI paired with RTK Cloud position to guide each pass. A neural network learns from millions of mowing hours and helps the mower know each spot by the centimeter. Setup stays simple with no wire and no local antenna.
A huge image set lets the system read shapes, edges, and obstacles. It maps the yard on its own, steers around objects, and cuts to edges. The result is a neat lawn with a sharp finish.

For tougher yards, Worx adds the Landroid Vision Cloud 4WD. This one targets slopes, rough ground, and complex layouts. Four wheel drive boosts grip and balance, which allows steady work on slopes up to 40 degrees or an 84% grade while cut quality stays even.
As with the Vision Cloud, the 4WD skips boundary wires and external antennas. Setup takes little effort, and the mower runs on its own, which gives homeowners a hands off lawn care option.

Designed for large, shared grounds like office parks, hotels, and university campuses, the Husqvarna Automower 540 EPOS offers wire-free installation, consistent cutting results, and remote control and supervision.
The Automower 540 EPOS also supports a new AI vision accessory with intelligent object identification, boosting uptime and reliability. This is a notable upgrade, especially since the Automower 450XH EPOS, while one of the best robotic mowers, required clearing the lawn of items small enough to fit under the mower’s housing. I’m interested to see how the Automower 540 EPOS handles obstacles and tight spaces without needing as much manual preparation.

Husqvarna also expanded its NERA lineup with four new robotic mowers designed for mid-sized gardens. Each model includes built-in AI vision technology, allowing the mower to detect and avoid objects on the lawn, which reduces the risk of unexpected stops.
By combining AI vision with Husqvarna EPOS, these mowers can operate in areas with weak reception while maintaining consistent cutting quality across the entire lawn.
The 405VE and 410VE models target lawns between 900 m² and 1,500 m² (about 9,700–16,100 sq ft). In comparison, the 430V and 450V models handle larger and more complex lawns up to 7,500 m² (around 80,700 sq ft). Another key difference is that the 405VE and 410VE include the EdgeCut feature, which reduces the need for manual edge trimming and helps save time and effort.

Segway is launching several new Navimow models, including one that pairs LiDAR with AI vision to avoid obstacles, even in low light or shaded areas. At CES 2026, we saw Segway Navimow introduce a lineup of robotic mowers across five series: the X4 Series, i2 AWD, i2 LiDAR, H2 Series, and Terranox Series. Together, these models cover lawns of all sizes and levels of complexity.
For more demanding landscapes, the Navimow i215 LiDAR stands out. Its solid-state LiDAR scans close to 200,000 points per second to build a detailed spatial map of the lawn. This allows reliable navigation in challenging conditions, including under tree cover, along narrow passages, and during nighttime operation.

Mammotion’s flagship robot lawn mower takes advantage of LiDAR to map your yard. If you aren’t familiar, LiDAR-based robot mowers rely on laser mapping and real-time 3D scanning to understand surroundings, detect obstacles, and move through complex layouts with precision, even in low-light conditions.
The LUBA 3 AWD LiDAR system provides a 360-degree horizontal field of view and a 59-degree vertical field of view, with a scanning range of up to 330 feet. You get a map of your yard with centimeter-level accuracy.

The other day, my aunt was looking for a vacuum cleaner. I suggested a Shark model, but she was set on Dreame. If you’ve heard of Dreame, it’s probably from googling top robot vacuums. But the brand isn’t stopping there—it aims to lead in multiple categories, including robot mowers.
At CES 2026, Dreame unveiled its Roboticmower A3 AWD Pro. The mower combines 360° 3D LiDAR, binocular AI vision, and a four-wheel-drive system. It can detect objects up to 70 meters away, map your lawn with centimeter-level precision, and sense in all directions, identifying and avoiding more than 300 common garden obstacles.

MOVA unveils its 60V Intelligent Cordless Garden Tools lineup, built on a shared battery platform with system-level intelligence. The setup ties together power management, performance control, app connectivity, and over-the-air updates to support long-term use. At the center of the lineup is the MOVA GL620 60V 20-inch self-propelled lawn mower, aimed at medium to large lawns.
The GL620 includes the PaceMate adaptive drive system, which uses hub motors to adjust drive speed in real time based on walking pace and cutting load. This allows mowing to feel more like a relaxed walk through the yard, making the task easier for users with varying physical abilities. A high-torque outer-rotor motor paired with a dual-blade system delivers faster, cleaner cuts, producing up to 11 N·m of torque to push through thick, stubborn grass.

MOVA’s sub-brand NexLawn introduces the NAVIA 6000 AWD with a NextTrim system that extends the blades during edge passes, allowing the mower to cut closer to borders and reduce the strip of grass left behind. That approach could reduce the amount of manual trimming many robot mowers still need. NexLawn’s most striking reveal, though, is not a product you can buy just yet.
A concept robot mower, the Master X features a mechanical arm to take on tasks that often require hands-on work. The arm folds down to about 17.5 inches, extends to 30 inches, and can reach up to 3.3 feet when handling outdoor jobs.
Thanks to a range of swappable tools such as a multigripper, trimmer head, and edging disc, the Master X moves well beyond mowing. It can weed, trim, collect branches and toys, harvest fruit, and even play fetch with pets.
