Three ranges for very different sites
Sunseeker’s X Gen 2, X4 and X9 machines overlap in technology but are designed for different scales and use cases. The correct range is determined by the site, not simply by choosing the largest coverage figure.
| Range | Scale | Primary use | Key consideration |
|---|---|---|---|
| X Gen 2 | 800–6,000 m² | Residential gardens and estates | Choose between compact, medium and large-area models |
| X4 | Up to 1,200 m² | Residential gardens | Fast wire-free setup and LiDAR navigation |
| X9 / X9 Plus | 12,000–24,000 m² per 48 hours | Professional and commercial grounds | Operating window, charging, access and service support |
X Gen 2
The X Gen 2 family spans several lawn sizes. X3 Gen 2 is aimed at compact lawns, X5 Gen 2 at medium gardens, and X7/X7 Plus Gen 2 at larger and more demanding sites. Cutting systems and slope capability vary within the family.
X4
The X4 is a focused residential model for lawns up to approximately 1,200 m². Its LiDAR-led, wire-free approach makes it particularly interesting where simple setup and environmental navigation are priorities.
X9 and X9 Plus
X9 models move into professional-scale mowing. The published capacities are based on a 48-hour operating period, so working hours, site activity, charging locations and presentation requirements must be considered before selection.
How to decide
- Choose by maintained area and available mowing time.
- Measure slopes rather than estimating them.
- Map trees, buildings, narrow corridors and separate zones.
- Decide whether the site requires residential convenience or commercial support.
- Plan charging, access and seasonal servicing.
Frequently asked questions
Is X9 simply a larger X7?
No. X9 is a professional-scale platform intended for different sites and operating requirements.
Is X4 better than X3 Gen 2?
Not universally. X4 may suit a site where LiDAR-led setup is attractive; X3 Gen 2 may be the better fit for another compact garden. The lawn conditions decide.
Should I choose exactly the stated coverage?
Usually it is sensible to retain spare capacity, particularly where mowing hours are restricted or grass growth is rapid.
