More Power! This Honda lawn mower will go 150 mph

What did Honda’s super-fast Mean Mower need? More power, of course.

The Japanese manufacturer, also known for its cars, jets, motorcycles and marine engines, wants to reclaim its title for making the fastest lawn mower in the world. The original Mean Mower could hit 130 mph and set a Guinness Book record at 116.575 mph in 2014. The current record-holder, a modified Viking mower made by a Norwegian group, hit a top speed of 134 mph a year later.

Honda’s U.K. division and Team Dynamics are working on Mean Mower V2 and targeting a top speed of 150 mph. The new riding mower, a modified Honda HF 2622 lawn tractor, will have almost double the power of the original Mean Mower, using a 999cc four-cylinder motorcycle engine that generates more than 190 horsepower at 13,000 rpm.

    1. My first car was a 1981 Honda Accord. First model year. Toughest car I've ever owned. Had it until 1998. I put over 400,000 miles on it. Original engine and transmission. I had to replace the radiator once.

  8. Honda cars were best in the 80s and 90s. Now they and Toyota run a program called "certified pre-owned". All they do is roll an extended warranty, which you can buy on any car, into the sale price of their used vehicles to artificial inflate the resale value.
