The new Honda Izy HRG 466 PK lawn mower features Honda's latest Euro-5 compliant, four-stroke GCVx 145 engine. These new engines offer enhanced combustion by creating stronger turbulence inside the chamber, while also being more tolerant to lower quality fuels. All Honda Izys have a new Auto Choke system, offering improved temperature sensing and choke optimisation, for easier starting in the most challenging conditions.
The new Izy range also includes easier access to serviceable parts such as the oil drain and spark plug, a much larger fuel filler cap, and tool-free access to the air filter.
Why choose this lawnmower?
The new Honda Izy HRG 466 PK is a new 18" (46cm) pushed lawn mower and features a powerful Honda GCVx145 engine, producing 145cc.
With the new Honda Izy HRG466PK, intuitive operation means there is nothing to learn and maintaining and storing the Izy is a doddle.
The recoil start is simple to use and provides an easy start in all weather conditions thanks to the auto-choke system.
The Izy HRG 466 PK features folding handles which allow you to store your mower in the garden shed without having to worry about how much room it takes up.
The high quality steel deck is incredibly durable and lasts years. The deck has a rounded design which is great for optimal airflow for fantastic grass collection. It also means that there are no hidden areas for wet grass to stick too, meaning that cleaning the Izy HRG 466PK is not a hard job.
Emptying the Izy HRG 466 PK from the nicely sized 50 litre grass bag is effortless, and thanks to it being a large size, it means fewer trips to empty as you mow. It has a built in rear shield which drops down to protect your legs when the bag is removed.
This lawnmower has 6 cutting heights between 20 to 74 mm, giving you plenty of option when it comes to choosing your ideal grass finish.

About Honda Izy Lawn Mowers
THE STRENGTH OF STEEL
The cutter deck is built tough to go on and on. Our manufacturing process adds all round strength to the cutter deck, because it’s formed in a press from a single sheet of steel. Then we paint it with a powder coating process that leaves a tough, durable finish that’s resistant to corrosion and UV ray deterioration.
Strong handles
The handles are fixed to the cutter deck by a strong supporting arms at the side and won't flex or bend during use. They can be quickly fixed into position when you need to start work, or folded down to save space when stored away in the shed or garage.
THE FANTASTIC 4-STROKE
Honda was first to use this type of engine on lawnmowers and it still can't be beaten.
With years of experience and research building engines, we’ve designed a light 4-stroke motor that sits at the heart of the IZY mowers. It delivers solid, reliable power with lower and cleaner emissions. It has an auto choke system, which adopts the same technology you’ll find in Honda cars and motorbikes.
Green economy
The engines are the lightest and most compact of their type. They’re incredibly easy to start because of a super-light flywheel and a new soft grip recoil handle for added comfort. Both features make sure the job isn't like an unplanned gym workout!
The low maintenance, 4-stroke engines avoid the messy business of mixing oil and fuel usually associated with a 2-stroke. They are less messy and less noisy, always start and fuel economy is much better too.
IT FUELS AND FEELS RIGHT
NO SPILLS MEANS NO DEAD GRASS AND NO MESS. THIS ERGONOMIC FILLER CAP IS EASY TO REMOVE WITH A TWIST.
IZY AIRFLOW
All IZY mowers have high airflow collection bags.
As the rotating blade cuts the grass it generates the airflow, which is important for the collecting process. The low air pressure creates a vacuum effect – literally sucking up the clippings – directing them through to the collection bag at the rear.
Dust free
We created a special material for our collection bags that start at 50-litres, through to a huge 73-litres capacity, depending on which mower you choose. Made with an ultra-fine mesh they maximise the collecting process without affecting the airflow and can stop even the finest dust particles from getting through. You won’t find a cleaner and more efficient system anywhere.
A GREENER GREEN
0% less noise means it's IZY-er to live with
As with all Honda products, protecting the environment is always an important consideration. With noise pollution regulations spreading throughout Europe, noise reduction is a key item for consumers of petrol lawnmowers.
Sticking to its core 'Izy' concept, noise levels have been reduced from 96 dB(A) to an impressive 94 dB(A). This has been achieved by making significant changes to the blade tips which now include the introduction of slots. The cutter deck tilt angle - rear verses front - has increased and slots have been added in the rear shield of the cutter housing to maximise the air flow to the grass bag. These modifications have resulted in significantly improved class leading 'cut and collect' performance as well as dramatically reducing the noise level by 30 per cent.
Auto choke innovation means it's IZY-er to use
'How much choke do I use?' - this is a familiar question which most lawnmower users would rather do without. Honda engineers furthered the Izy-ness concept by studying the problems often encountered while using the choke.
As a result of their research a thermo wax assembly now opens and closes the choke valve automatically inside the intake manifold of all new Izy models. When the engine temperature is low (i.e., when starting from cold) the choke valve is closed; once the engine has warmed up, the choke valve opens.
Following engine start, the thermo wax assembly operates by receiving heat from the engine block moving the choke link to the open position. When the engine temperature cools, or when some time has passed during operation and choking is necessary, the thermo wax assembly will be returned to its initial position by the return spring. This moves the choke link to the closed position. In addition to simpler mowing, the innovative auto choke device also improves performance because the correct carburettor settings are automatically controlled and achieved with greater efficiency.
Warranty
It comes with a fantastic 5 year warranty (subject to annual use) if used in a domestic environment. Honda domestic lawnmowers are supported with one of the longest and most comprehensive warranties to provide customers with peace of mind and satisfaction.
