The increasing demand from the commercial segment is notably driving the robotic lawn mower market growth, although factors such as the availability of alternatives may impede the robotic lawn mower market growth. Our researchers studied the data for years, with 2022 as the base year and 2023 as the estimated year, and presented the key drivers, trends, and challenges for the market. Although there has been a decrease in demand for the market during the COVID-19 pandemic, a holistic analysis of drivers will help companies refine marketing strategies to gain a competitive advantage.
The increasing demand from the commercial segment is notably driving the robotic lawn mower market growth. In the residential sector, robotic lawnmowers have emerged as an optimal solution for lawn mowing. However, the use of these machines in the commercial sector was limited until now. Over the years, technological innovations in robotic lawn mower products have mitigated earlier challenges such as low productivity, limited battery life, and frequent maintenance of robotic lawnmowers and increased the popularity of these machines in the commercial sector. Robotic lawn mowers have adjustable shock absorber components to adjust according to the incline and on uneven garden areas. All these features have enabled them to overcome the challenges faced by traditional lawn mowers and have increased the popularity of robotic lawn mowers in commercial areas such as golf courses, hotels, sports fields, and parks.
Numerous commercial end-users are opting for robotic lawn mowers over manual cutting machines for garden and lawn care. For instance, in May 2022, The Toro Company announced its new robotic lawn mower product with battery-powered mowers and smart, connected technology. The mower can maneuver through narrow spaces and around obstacles such as trees and landscaping thanks to the product's patented vision technology, which uses numerous cameras to map and locate obstacles in the yard or space. Such developments in the commercial end-user segment are expected to drive market growth during the forecast period.
The development of smart cities is the primary trend driving the robotic lawn mower market growth. A smart city integrates information and communication technology (ICT) with IoT to manage a city. Globally, governments are embracing technologies such as connected devices, IoT, Big data, analytics, artificial intelligence (AI), and robots to fulfill smart city initiatives. Smart cities will drive the demand for robotic lawnmowers, as the need for effective gardening equipment will increase with infrastructural development.
Gardening equipment ensures effective lawn care and reduces overall energy consumption. The elevated risk of pollution and the use of gas-powered equipment that directly contributes to pollution are the major challenges faced by cities across the globe. Robotic lawnmowers are battery-powered and emission-free, which can aid in fulfilling the standards for energy efficiency and pollution in smart cities. In addition, robotic lawn mower providers must regularly update their functionalities and features in terms of technology and increase the capabilities of their lawnmowers to adapt to the changing needs of end-users, especially in the commercial segment.
The availability of alternatives may impede the robotic lawn mower market growth. The availability of conventional lawn mowing equipment is a major challenge adversely affecting the adoption of robotic lawn mowers. Conventional lawn mowing equipment includes push reel mowers, electric lawn mowers, and hover mowers. Compared with robotic lawnmowers, these machines are less expensive. Most vendors that offer robotic lawnmowers also provide conventional gardening equipment. Most of the revenue generated by these vendors is from the sales of conventional gardening equipment. Therefore, they focus on improving the features of such lawn mowing equipment. Vendors are improving the battery life and efficiency of mechanical lawn mowing equipment.
For instance, in February 2022, Makita U.S.A., Inc. announced two new models in its cordless lawn mower lineup, namely XML10CT1 and XML11CT1. This cordless lawn mowing equipment is powered by a battery, and the power equipment eliminates the hassles of dealing with gas besides involving zero emissions, less noise, and reduced maintenance of the lawn. These products are placed as battery-powered alternatives to gas equipment and robotic lawnmowers. Such developments in conventional gardening equipment will reduce the demand for robotic lawnmowers during the forecast period.

Europe is projected to contribute 52% by 2027. Technavio’s analysts have elaborately explained the regional trends and drivers that shape the market during the forecast period.
Factors such as the expanding residential communities in the UK, Germany, and France and the thriving tourism industry encourage governments to spend more on recreational areas and parks. High disposable income in Western European countries also influences the lifestyle of the affluent middle-class population and draws them toward creative hobbies such as gardening. In addition, the improving economic conditions in Eastern and Central Europe and the growing interest in the adoption of green technology for gardening are expected to create growth opportunities for robotic lawn mower manufacturers during the forecast period. Another major factor driving the demand for robotic lawnmowers in Europe is the growing trend of DIY gardening activities. Homeowners in European countries are likely to engage in gardening and landscaping activities, which will fuel the need for garden improvement tools, thus driving the demand for robotic lawnmowers.
The COVID-19 pandemic led to the shutdown of production plants in 2020 and 2021 in several countries in Europe. Moreover, due to the shutdown of offline distribution channels, such as dealers and retail channels, the sales of robotic lawnmowers declined in 2020 and 2021. However, in 2021, owing to the large-scale vaccination drives and the governments of several countries lifted lockdown restrictions, which led to the resumption of manufacturing operations of robotic lawn mower manufacturers and related business partners and distributors. However, China's COVID-19-related lockdowns aggravated supply chain problems related to robotic lawnmowers and their components. The supply chain constraints have affected the residential segment of the regional robotic lawn mower market. Such challenges are expected to remain during the forecast period.
