Honda unveils hybrid snowblower
Honda Power Equipment, a division of American Honda Motor Co., Inc., is introducing the Honda HS1336i snowblower — the first Honda hybrid snowblower design available for the U.S. market. The hybrid configuration of the HS1336i model combines a gasoline engine that simultaneously drives the snowblower auger/fan apparatus (clearing and throwing the snow) and charges the battery, with the electric motors (2 in parallel) controlling the track drive forward propulsion. Equipped with the Honda iGX390 4-stroke engine, the operation of the HS1336i snowblower results in lower fuel consumption and lower emissions. The all-new hybrid model also boasts excellent control/ease of use; powerful operation/snow throwing; lower noise and vibration; reliable operation; and enhanced technology.
