Last year, the Ariens Company celebrated its 90th anniversary.
The family business has been manufacturing two-stage snow blowers and high-quality lawn care equipment since 1933.
The anniversary was taken as an opportunity to relaunch all combustion models of the Ariens zero-turn mowers. Following adaptation to the CE standard, the new models will now be launched on the European market from the 2025 mowing season.
From the entry-level Edge model for private gardens to the price-performance star Apex and the professional Zenith model, the new models are presented in a new, dynamic look. In addition to minor technical improvements, the new Ariens Envy mowing deck and the StVZO road equipment for the Zenith and Zenith E models will be the centre of interest.
The Ariens Zenith is designed for daily professional use and will be equipped with the new Ariens Envy mowing deck from 2025. This is characterised by durability, a consistent cutting pattern and a robust blade system. An optimised air flow ensures a perfect cutting pattern. The fully suspended and adjustable seat with high backrest and folding armrests, the new ergonomic driving lever handles and the standard wheel fork suspension ensure real driving comfort. The zero-turn mower is powered by a powerful Kawasaki FX730V engine with a displacement of 726 cm³.
The use of zero-turn mowers on public roads requires a lighting system approved in accordance with the German Road Traffic Licensing Regulations (StVZO). From the coming mowing season, Ariens will be offering a StVZO road kit for the Zenith and Zenith E models. The kit consists of an operating and control unit, front and rear lighting, an indicator, a licence plate holder, a speed plate, reflectors and a horn. A TÜV type certificate facilitates approval. The ECE marking is recognised throughout Europe and can be implemented in all EU countries through individual approval.
The new, appealing design with a stylish comfort seat and new driving levers has been incorporated into the Ariens Apex model year 2025, as has the new Ariens Envy mower deck. The Ariens Apex is also equipped with the high-quality frame of the Ariens Zenith professional mower and professional hydrostats from Hydro Gear. The Ariens CBT (Constant-Belt-Tension System) compensates for belt wear and prevents the blades from stopping under high loads. The high-quality Kawasaki FR691 V-engine with a displacement of 726 cm³ provides the mower with reliable power for every day. All in all, the new Ariens Apex stands for robust, long-lasting quality and outstanding cutting performance. Service providers and owners of large lawns will find it the perfect mower and unbeatable value for money.
With its compact dimensions, the Ariens Edge brings speed and manoeuvrability even to winding gardens. The punched mower deck of the Edge 34 with 86 cm cutting width and the welded mower deck of the Edge 42 ensure a very good cutting pattern. The robust 4-point mower deck suspension and 7-position cutting height adjustment via foot pedal are standard. The comfortable and adjustable seat with back cut-out and good legroom ensures comfort. To summarise: The Ariens Edge - the smallest of the zero-turn mowers - offers durability, comfort and the speed of a zero-turn mower in a handy, compact format. The new design suits it particularly well.
