THE UK'S NO. 1 GARDEN MACHINERY WEBSITE
The Stiga Tornado 398E is a new 56V 40Ah battery-powered lawn tractor which brings you the best of all worlds: the power of a petrol lawn tractor – but without the usual emissions and noise.
An easy-to-use dashboard brings the battery power status, and quick-press start button. A 1.2kW transaxle motor takes you to speeds up to 9,5 km/h, while two cutting blade motors totalling 3kW are free from belts, pulleys and costly maintenance. And every mowing session is a joy, thanks to this Tornado's generous 98cm cutting width, adjustable to 7 heights between 25 to 80mm.
The Stiga Tornado 398e is a thoroughly modern and extremely impressive ride-on lawn mower. Packed with outstanding features that offer all the power and convenience you need to achieve great things in your garden, the Stiga Tornado 398e is just what you’ve been waiting for. Battery-powered and robustly built it will give you years of reliable mowing and you won’t need to be technically minded to use the simple and dedicated App.
This Stiga Tornado 398e is ideal for you if you are new to gardening or you want to achieve great things in your garden without a lot of fuss. Developed by Stiga as part of their new range of gardening machinery this battery powered side-discharge lawn tractor is from the “Experience” range - it’s easy to start and simple to operate and its functions are easy to understand.
The grass cuttings are discharged from the side - which means they will be spread over your lawn in neat rows where they will wilt quickly and naturally and some gardeners much prefer this to leaving them in large heaps to rot slowly on a compost heap. Mowing is quick and easy and you can easily cover up to 3500sqm and 45 minutes on just one charge. Thanks to the very capable 98cm cutting width, you'll cover more of your lawn in less time.
This stress-free ride-on mower is easy to operate. When it comes to needing to brake, you simply depress the pedal - there’s no separate brake pedal to worry about, and more room for your feet! Each mowing session you undertake will be fun and no longer the chore it used to be. This Stiga Tornado 398e is quiet and fume free and can tackle larger areas with ease thanks to its long lasting battery power.
You have seven different cutting heights to choose from and these range from 25 - 80 mm. The two efficient blade motors provide a combined cutting power of 3kW – and this is of course all without belts, pulleys, power loss or maintenance. This means that this Stiga Tornado 398e will require virtually no servicing or repair over its long life, making it the ideal ride-on tractor for the busy gardener of today.
One of the unusual features on this Stiga Tornado 398e is the innovative washing link feature - for the first time on an electric tractor! This enables you to easily clean the cutting deck with a water hose. And comes IP 65 protected, for your safety. There’s even a storage compartment and a cup holder for the utmost comfort when mowing the lawn.
Take command of your garden with the STIGA Tornado 398e battery lawn tractor, the side-discharge specialist designed for speed, power, and efficiency. Engineered for medium-sized lawns and challenging terrain, the Stiga 398e combines a robust 98cm cutting deck with the intelligence of STIGA’s next-generation battery ecosystem.
Maximize your productivity with the innovative modular battery system. The integrated rack is engineered for total flexibility, housing either a single 40Ah ePower Pro battery for coverage up to 7,500m² or a dual-battery setup to tackle estates up to 15,000m². Thanks to its swappable, quick-release design, your working potential is virtually unlimited. For added convenience, the chassis features an internal storage compartment perfectly sized for your charger and personal essentials. Plus, navigate with confidence at any hour using the newly redesigned high-intensity LED headlights, providing superior front-facing visibility.
The heart of the Tornado 398e is the new 40Ah ePower Pro battery system, offering a "one size fits all" modular approach to energy.
The Tornado 398e features an Extended Dashboard that acts as your mission control. Stay informed throughout your session with real-time updates on:
Equipped with high-torque drive motors, the 398e offers superior climbing ability on slopes and enough pulling capacity to tow a fully loaded 100kg STIGA cart. Whether you are dealing with thick grass or uneven ground, the Tornado 398e delivers consistent blade speed and a premium finish every time.
Step into the future of lawn care with the STIGA Tornado 398e —where professional power meets intelligent design.
STIGA is redefining efficiency with a modular approach to energy, ensuring you have exactly the power you need, precisely where and when you need it.
One Size, Infinite Possibilities: Stiga's high-performance 40Ah ePower batteries follow a "one size fits all" philosophy. This modular design allows you to combine batteries into customized modules, tailoring your machine's runtime to perfectly match the size of your garden.
Synchronized Reliability: When multiple batteries are installed, they don’t just work side-by-side - they work in perfect harmony. The system monitors the energy levels and health of each individual unit, distributing the workload to ensure consistent performance and longer battery life.
Advanced Master & Slave Strategy: At the heart of this technology is a sophisticated Battery Management System (BMS). The system utilizes a "Master & Slave" strategy: the first battery inserted acts as the "Master," coordinating energy management across the entire array. It monitors signals and performance parameters from the "Slave" batteries in real-time, ensuring seamless parallel usage and optimized power delivery.
Why this matters for your garden
Instead of being restricted by a single fixed battery, you now have the flexibility to scale your power. Whether you are doing a quick trim or tackling a massive estate, the Master & Slave strategy ensures your machine draws power intelligently, preventing "range anxiety" and maximizing the lifespan of your investment.

Smart, safety tested and synched with STIGA products, ePower is the next generation in batteries. Tests we run on ePower batteries are 5 times tougher than Industry standard requirements, to ensure the highest quality standards in terms of performance, reliability and battery health through time. Our batteries are efficient, as we optimised and secured the position of each individual cell; safe, as we created space to allow air to cool; and smart, as we we developed and tested the electronics and software that controls the cells. They power longer and live longer, thanks to a smart energy management operated by all machines and tools running on interchangeable ePower batteries.
All STIGA electric tractor mowers, Swift and Gyro are equipped with the STIGA Smart cutting mode function. While mowing, you can adjust the blade speed on 3 different settings, depending on the result you wish to see and on the conditions of the grass you are taking care of. Availabe speeds are Standard, Boost and Eco-Mode (which helps improving energy-efficiency). You can choose the blade speed directly from the dashboard, by simply pushing a button. A green LED-indicator will let you know at which speed you are cutting - you can change it anytime you want, while mowing.
When plugging your STIGA electric tractor mower in the garage or in your garden shed, you might prefer a certain timing for recharge, in order to save money on energy supply: open the STIGA.GO App on your smartphone and choose the Smart recharge schedule function so you can easily schedule a time slot for your tractor to recharge. It will only recharge in the given timeframe.
Use your smartphone as a dashboard while driving, thanks to the STIGA.GO App! By installing the phone on the steering wheel throught the holder, you can always see real-time information about the working session: speed, battery charge left, but also a feedback from the tractor mower on cutting efficiency, so you can adjust either speed or cutting height and achieve the best cutting results.
A step up for the larger garden or just a simple upgrade of your garden tools to take on multiple gardening tasks and activities.

Stiga have been associated with garden machinery for well over 80 years. In March 1934, Sweden, Stig Hjelmquist started the company ‘Firma Fabriksprodukter’ which became the foundation of Stiga AB. The original business concept was ‘newsworthy products of good design and good quality, with advertising that is better than our competitors.’ This business concept was designed to permeate through the whole of Stig Hjelmquist’s business life.
In 1938 the company name was changed to Stiga and the very first Stiga table tennis products were produced. In 1943 Stiga were producing table tennis equipment under their own management, but a few years later they began cooperating with the Swedish TableTennis Association.
In 1954 Stig Hjelmquist imported the first motorized lawn mowers with horizontally rotating blades from the US. That became the starting point of Stigas most successful line; garden machinery.
Over the next few years Stiga continued to work on their table tennis line and produced the first table hockey game. But in 1964 they began their own line of lawnmowers which was incredibly successful. Roughly 400 machines were produced every day.
Stiga became established abroad and sales offices were opened in London and Helsinki, Finland. In 1975 Stiga launched the very first Park: Park 2000, a ride on lawn tractor with a front deck which revolutionized grass cutting in Nordic countries
By 1976 Stiga’s new factory was a massive 34,000m2 making it the biggest factory in the Nordic countries producing motor driven lawnmowers.
Stiga became the biggest manufacturer of lawn mowers in Europe by 1986. They introduced the first mower with the Multi-clip technology, and the first radio controlled mower.
By 1997, Stiga were represented in roughly 40 countries, including New Zealand, North America, South America and Eastern Europe.
Now, Stiga are owned by the GGP Group, manufacturer of one of the largest range of lawn mowers and garden machinery in Europe. GGP UK Limited distribute all Stiga garden machinery in the UK.
The quality of Stiga’s machines is second to none. The lawn mowers are built to get the job done efficiently and safely with no fuss and no time wasting. They feature powerful Stiga engines or other well known top brands such as Briggs and Stratton or Honda. The range includes hand pushed models and self propelled machines to choose from.
Stiga also offer a very innovative range of front deck mowers. They’re built for accurate mowing and getting into areas which are often harder to reach.
The Stiga compact lawn riders are really easy to use, offering great manoeuvrability and forward visibility and the Stiga garden tractors are packed with high performance features.
The Stiga range of brushcutters, hedge trimmers and tillers are all of the same fine excellence that the lawnmowers and ride ons have.
