Coming in 2026: Sunseeker Elite X9 and X9 Plus
Sunseeker Elite X9 and X9 Plus: The new benchmark for large lawns, sports fields, and parks.
With the new top models Sunseeker Elite X9 and X9 Plus, Sunseeker is raising the bar higher than ever in 2026: The X9 robotic mower can manage up to 12,000 m², and the X9 Plus even up to 24,000 m². With the help of 15 sensors, including 8 cameras, as well as nRTK, both navigate wirelessly and with centimeter precision; Powered by a 42V platform, the all-wheel drive with independent suspension on each wheel and two steering motors delivers flawless results on large private areas, sports fields, and municipal grounds.
Precision without wires, without antenna
AONavi™ 2.0 fuses nRTK and VSLAM 2.0 for centimeter-accurate positioning without any antenna installation. This reduces installation effort, saves additional hardware, and preserves the aesthetics of the garden. The new fast chip with 10 trillion operations per second makes mowing movements and obstacle avoidance noticeably more responsive: fewer stops, smoother paths, more area per day. Mobile connectivity is standard, ensuring stable online services, remote assistance, and software updates even where Wi-Fi is weak. And if the satellite signal briefly drops, the cameras take over the exact path planning. The result is visible, even mowing stripes and reliably clean edges, even in complex, partially shaded areas.
360° Vision™: All-round visibility, protection & precision
The sensor system provides a complete 24/7 environmental image: 8 cameras and a total of 15 sensors detect static, dynamic, and very low obstacles even in low light and reliably avoid animal collisions. This reduces manual intervention, prevents unplanned stops, and protects both material and environment.
EdgeZero: Edges to zero
EdgeZero takes edge trimming to a new level: The precise trimming attachment works practically at zero distance along right angles, fences, wall edges, and bed borders, as well as around posts and obstacles. This almost completely eliminates post-processing with trimmers; finish lines appear clean and even, even in complex border zones. For users, this means less time spent, a higher quality cut right into the corners, and a clear impression of quality on sports and presentation areas. For the Sunseeker X9 robotic mower, EdgeZero is optional, while it is standard on the X9 Plus.
Superior Mowing System
The superior mowing system of the X9/X9 Plus combines power and precision: a powerful cutting motor drives two 43-cm discs, each with six blades, while the electric height adjustment from 20–100 mm including target cutting height delivers consistently clean results across an unlimited number of zones. Secure propulsion is provided by ATC Pro with all-wheel drive, independent suspension on all four wheels, and a steering motor for both front and rear steering; large, tilt-stable front wheels maintain traction even on wet ground and steep slopes up to 90% (42°). And thanks to fast charging, the Sunseeker X9 is ready again in about 50 minutes, and the X9 Plus in just about 20 minutes for minimal downtime and maximum mowing time per day.
Intelligent Fleet Management & More
Integrated fleet management efficiently coordinates multiple devices, and updates keep functions current. Splash water protection and a rain sensor ensure reliable operation, while quiet running ensures neighborhood peace. Voice assistance (e.g., Alexa/Google) and an LCD display simplify daily operation. The market launch in Europe is planned for May 2026. Specific dates will follow in consultation with specialist retailers.
