MOVA's mowers: LiDAX and ViAX

MOVA's LiDAX line positions by LiDAR and a camera and comes in two chassis. The all-wheel-drive LiDAX Ultra 1000 AWD, LiDAX Ultra 1600 AWD and LiDAX Ultra 2000 AWD are the highest-scoring mowers of the brand: a 400 mm cut from 30 to 100 mm, an 80% slope rating, 150 minutes of runtime and 66 dB, differing only in the lawn size they are rated for. The two-wheel-drive LiDAX Ultra 800, LiDAX Ultra 1200 and LiDAX Ultra 1600 halve the deck to 200 mm, are rated for 45% slopes and pass 600 mm gaps. The ViAX line is the entry level: the ViAX 500 still carries LiDAR, while the ViAX 250 and ViAX 300 position by camera alone and are rated for 250 and 300 m².
