MOVALiDAX Ultra 2000

The LiDAX Ultra 2000 ($1,799) is the top version of the MOVA LiDAX Ultra. It is rated for lawns up to 2,000 m² and slopes up to 45%. Navigation: UltraView 2.0: 360° 3D LiDAR + AI vision.

Half-acre LiDAR mower with built-in 4G anti-theft and edge trimming, no RTK station needed.

On paper it suits typical suburban gardens — the manufacturer rates it for up to 2,000 m². A 45% slope rating covers most sloping gardens; for banks steeper than that, look at AWD models. As always, treat the area figure as a best case: buy with a 30–50% buffer if your lawn has slopes, trees or narrow passages.

Its LiDAR sensor scans the garden in 3D and lets the mower localise itself against that map, so it keeps working under trees, next to house walls and at dusk — places where satellite-only mowers often lose their position.

It mows with a 20 cm cutting width and a cutting height of 30–100 mm. Cutting system: 1 disc, 6 blades. Edge cutting: UltraTrim 1.0. Power comes from a 5 Ah battery — 90 min runtime, 65 min charge. It weighs about 13.8 kg, light enough to carry between separate lawns. Connectivity: Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, built-in 4G.

The LiDAX Ultra family also includes the LiDAX Ultra 1000; the versions differ mainly in rated area, battery and price, so pick the smallest one that covers your lawn with a margin.

Price: $1,799 (US list price). Prices vary by market and retailer — check current offers before buying.
