STIGA Tornado 398e: 98cm 48V Cordless Side-Discharge & Mulching Lawn Tractor
The STIGA Tornado 398e offers a clean, ultra-quiet, and fuel-free alternative to traditional petrol ride-on mowers without compromising on torque or cutting performance. Fueled by STIGA's revolutionary 48V modular ePower system, this rugged tractor handles large acreage effortlessly. Because it relies entirely on a modern brushless powertrain, the operator enjoys an ultra-low vibration ride, zero toxic exhaust emissions, and total freedom from checking spark plugs, oil levels, or replacing snapped drive belts.
Advanced Brushless Powertrain & High-Velocity Side Discharge
- Direct-Drive Dual Blade Motors: The 98cm (38") cutting deck features two independent blade motors totaling 3kW. By eliminating belts and pulleys, the blades receive instant torque directly from the battery cells, ensuring a crisp, uniform cut even in dense, tall grass.
- Smooth Electronic Transmission: Driven by a powerful 1.2kW electronic transaxle motor, the tractor reaches a smooth, responsive top forward travel speed of 9.5 km/h. Forward and reverse speeds are managed fluidly via a single, intuitive foot pedal with an automatic integrated braking system.
- Efficient Side-Discharge Management: Perfect for high-speed maintenance of rustic lawns, wildflower meadows, or paddocks. The wide side chute disperses clippings evenly across the turf surface in neat rows, optimizing airflow and eliminating internal deck blockages.
Smart STIGA.GO Virtual Dashboard & Eco Mode
- Bluetooth App Connectivity: Secure your mobile phone into the designated steering wheel cradle to transform it into a live virtual dashboard via the STIGA.GO App. Access real-time readouts on your travel speed, remaining battery charge, estimated remaining cutting time, and localized technical feedback on cutting efficiency.
- Energy-Saving Eco Mode: When managing lighter, regular lawn growth or performing routine maintenance cuts, activating Eco Mode scales down the blade rotations. This minimizes power consumption, significantly extending your battery runtime.
- Smart Recharge Scheduling: Take advantage of lower night-time electricity tariffs. Through the smartphone app, you can easily set a specific time slot for your tractor to recharge, ensuring it only draws power during your preferred off-peak hours.
Premium Construction & Intelligent Ergonomics
- Natural Mulching Flexibility: Insert the included mulch plug to instantly seal the deck. The twin-cut blades will finely shred grass clippings into microscopic fractions, blowing them deep into the soil base to act as a free, nutrient-rich organic fertilizer.
- IP65 Weather-Protected Washing Link: Cleaning the cutting deck has never been easier on an electric tractor. The robust deck features a quick-connect washing link to attach a standard water hose, while the entire electrical network is IP65-rated to easily withstand washdowns and wet grass conditions.
- 7-Position Height Control & LED Lights: A heavy-duty, spring-assisted manual lever adjusts the deck seamlessly across 7 heights ranging from 25mm to 80mm. For low-light operation, a pair of high-intensity LED headlights perfectly illuminate your path.
What's Included: 1x STIGA Tornado 398e Battery Lawn Tractor (Power Unit Chassis), 1x Integrated Multi-Port Battery Compartment, 1x Dedicated Cutting Deck Mulch Plug, and 1x Protective Front Bumper Bar. (Check dealer kit specifics for bundled battery and charger inclusions).

They will require you to test drive your new product on your lawn to see you are 100% happy with the operation and to answer any questions you may have.

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.
