Starting with the Husqvarna 562XPG, this chainsaw is designed for high-performance cutting in demanding conditions. It features a powerful and efficient X-Torq engine that delivers high torque over a wide RPM range, reducing fuel consumption and emissions. The 562XPG also includes heated handles, which provide additional comfort during cold weather operations. This model is equipped with the AutoTune technology that automatically adjusts the engine settings to varying conditions, ensuring optimal performance without the need for manual tuning.

Next in line is the Husqvarna 555, a robust chainsaw that strikes a balance between power and weight.
