Ariens launches the Ikon Onyx zero-turn
AriensCo’s Ariens brand of outdoor power equipment has launched the Ikon Onyx, a bold, custom zero-turn lawn mower with a 52-inch deck.
“Every lawn mower in the Ariens lineup makes a statement, and the Ikon Onyx makes several,” says Andy Massignan, AriensCo product director for residential lawn. “It reflects performance and attention-grabbing style. Even when parked in the driveway, it tells your neighbors that you don’t settle for just anything to cut your grass.”
While retaining the premium features of the Ariens Ikon platform, the Ikon Onyx is equipped with a 23-horsepower Kawasaki FR691V engine and it sports a striking black-on-black finish. In addition, the new zero-turn adds large, aggressive tread rear tires to round out its character, as well as a molded floor mat and rubber isolators under the seat absorb shock and enhance comfort.
“Our bold design shows homeowners what they can have in a lawn mower,” says Massignan. “The Ikon Onyx isn’t just daring in its looks – we pushed the boundaries on comfort to continue redefining what it means to mow the lawn.”
The mower retains customer favorites from the IKON platform, the company points out, including a fully welded, steel tubular frame for durability; a 22-inch plush, high-back seat for exceptional comfort; and an 11-gauge fabricated Ariens Envy steel deck. Four points of support help keep the deck level over bumpy terrain.
Accessory options for the Ariens Ikon Onyx include a trailer hitch, a bagger, a grass mulching kit and a striping kit. Also available: a grab handle for easier entry and exit to and from the cockpit.
The Ikon Onyx is now available at Ariens dealerships in the United States and Canada (and Lowe’s stores in select markets).
