New From Husqvarna: 564 XP Fuel-Inject Pro Saw
The Husqvarna 564 XP is a groundbreaking 60 cc chainsaw designed for forestry and tree care professionals who demand cutting-edge performance. Combining the compact size and maneuverability of a 50 cc saw with the powerful output of a 70 cc, it delivers an exceptional 5.4 HP in a slim, lightweight body—making it the most powerful chainsaw in its class*. Equipped with advanced technologies—including Husqvarna’s fuel injection system and a short-stroke engine—it provides instant acceleration, consistent power delivery, and outstanding productivity throughout the workday. A refined design minimizes internal loads and delivers the lowest vibration levels of any Husqvarna gas chainsaw, reducing operator strain and enhancing long-term durability. Starting is simplified with an intuitive procedure, making it easier to get up and running in any condition. With its extreme power-to-weight ratio, durability-focused engineering, and next-level maneuverability, the 564 XP sets a new benchmark in professional cutting performance—built to excel in applications where precision and reliability matter most.
The 564 XP saw will be available in early 2026, and will start at $1,099.99.
