Sherpa ReDesign and new models

The all-wheel drive models of the AS-Motor Sherpa family will appear in a new design in the future. Visually, the new 2023 Sherpa 4WD models are even more attractive with a new paint finish, an additional front panel and the newly designed decals. But the new AS Sherpa 4WD high grass mowers also offer a number of technical innovations.

The new ATV tyres on the AS 940 Sherpa XL and the remote-controlled ride-on mower AS 940 Sherpa RC feature even better performance when driving across slopes and better climbing ability. In future, all AS Motor 4WD Sherpa models will be equipped with the AS tyre sealant Plattfuss-Stop as standard – downtimes due to flat tyres will be a thing of the past. The new fuel tank of the Sherpas offers more volume (17 litres), a larger tank opening, a fuel level indicator and a closed circuit with less fuel evaporation. The new locking mechanism of the foldable bar ensures easier handling and improved freedom of movement when operating the driving lever. In future, the protective cloth between the engine and the seat will no longer be elaborately riveted, but locked in place by robust magnets. Accessibility to the engine, for example when adjusting the valves or changing the oil, is significantly improved. This was an idea from AS-Motor users and dealers. Many thanks for this practical improvement idea.

As part of the redesign, the Sherpa family will be expanded from five to eight models. In addition to the models with Briggs and Stratton engines, there will be four models with a Loncin engine. The AS 915 Sherpa will be available exclusively with a Loncin engine in the future.

The following models will offer a choice between a Briggs and Stratton and a Loncin engine: AS 920 Sherpa, AS 940 Sherpa and AS 940 Sherpa XL. With a displacement of 708 cc and a rated power of 21.2 hp, it represents an attractively priced alternative. The remote-controlled Sherpa RC will continue to be equipped with a Briggs and Stratton.
