List prices are the manufacturer’s published figures, re-checked daily; they exclude tax, freight and dealer setup.

A side-by-side reference of each model's stated specifications. MowerFacts doesn’t give opinions: where a published, spec-derived rule can separate machines we mark a Data Pick and show the rule; here, read the values and decide what fits your needs.

  2. Automower 580 EPOS runs 120 min per charge; Automower 540 EPOS runs 85 min per charge, a 35 min difference. Stated run time is under the maker's conditions. Thick or wet grass shortens it.
  3. Automower 580 EPOS is rated for slopes to 45%; Automower 540 EPOS is rated for slopes to 50%, a 5 points difference. The slope rating is the maker's limit for safe operation, not a measure of performance.
  4. Automower 580 EPOS weighs 39 lbs (17.7 kg); Automower 540 EPOS weighs 37 lbs (16.7 kg), a 2 lbs difference. Operating weight bears on trailer payload, ramps and soft turf. On its own it says nothing about build quality. What Automower 580 EPOS's weight means for a trailer ›
