Evatech
The GOAT robot 22T is specifically designed
for slope and rough terrain mowing — up to a
70° incline. It has a track system that allows it
to go where no other mowers can and no operator will want to go, according to the manufacturer. Because the rugged unit is remote
controlled, the operator can remain safely
away and let it do the work. A patented hybrid
system means the GOAT is both fuel-efficient
and eco-friendly.
