Title: New and "new" Husky chainsaws in 2012 catalog (Norway).
Post by: SawTroll on May 25, 2012, 03:49:56 pm

I finally got hold of a 2012 Norwegian catalog, and there are some slightly surpricing more or less new models listed:
 
- The 562xp/xpg is now listed in addition to the 560xp/xpg - maybe there is hope that the other way around will happen in the US?
 
- The T540xp is listed (as last year), but still no release date or other signs that it actually is availiable.
 
- The 570 is listed with AutoTune, so it apparently isn't a "dead" model (but should have been).

- The 460 RancherII is listed (wasn't here before), but now with 64cc 3.0kW (vs. 2.7) and Autotune. The 455 R II is also listed as AT.
 
- Totally new is the 465 Rancher II, also 64cc, but 3.2kw. Another AutoTune.

- Other totally new models are the 135 and 140 (recycled model number). They more or less look like the 435/440, but are listed with a little more weight and less power. My guess they are the ultimate el-cheapo POS models, and likely made in China???

I was looking into the auto tune 570 in early March.  So is it just a overseas saw now?
