What’s different? The 5 differences that matter most, from the published figures.
- Automower 305E NERA ships with a 2 Ah battery; Automower 308V ships with a 4 Ah battery, a 2 Ah difference. Amp-hours is stored energy at the pack's voltage. Run time also depends on load, so a bigger pack lasts longer under the same conditions, not a fixed time.
- Automower 305E NERA runs 50 min per charge; Automower 308V runs 100 min per charge, a 50 min difference. Stated run time is under the maker's conditions. Thick or wet grass shortens it.

- Automower 305E NERA is rated for slopes to 30%; Automower 308V is rated for slopes to 40%, a 10 points difference. The slope rating is the maker's limit for safe operation, not a measure of performance.
- Automower 305E NERA weighs 28 lbs (12.6 kg); Automower 308V weighs 22 lbs (9.9 kg), a 6 lbs difference. Operating weight bears on trailer payload, ramps and soft turf. On its own it says nothing about build quality. What Automower 305E NERA's weight means for a trailer ›
