When you think of concept vehicles what springs to mind first? Curvy sports cars, maybe something which can turn from a car into a boat or plane.

Not the good folk over at Husqvarna who have spent months designing what they think will be the ride-on lawn mower of the future.

The Panthera Leo is made out of recycled materials, features an electric engine for silent operation and has three hanging cutting decks like those found on an electric razor.

Designers say its green credentials make this an eco-friendly lawn mower ... pretty hard for a device which only exists to cut down nature.

The Panthera Leo also features a LCD-display which tells gardeners how fast they are driving and even recommended the most suitable speed and cutting height to create the perfect lawn.

Husqvarna say it could be put into production within five years, until then accept your garden is not going to rival Wembley.

Whereas cutting down trees in the rain forest is bad for the environment on a whole, cutting grass is necessary in the confines of a yard. Uncut grass usually chokes itself to death when it gets too thick. We are talking healthy grass- not the weeds that choke the life out of grass blades and replace it.
