First-Ever Battery-Powered Snow Thrower From STIHL

From light powder to wet snow, the SFA 120 helps clear driveways and walkways; when paired with two ALLPRO AP 300.0 P batteries, it can clear up to a 10-car driveway after 2.75 inches of fresh snow

VIRGINIA BEACH, Va., Nov. 2, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- The last leaves may be falling, but outdoor work doesn't stop when winter arrives. As STIHL celebrates its 100th anniversary, the company is bringing its outdoor power expertise to snow removal with the SFA 120, its first snow thrower, now rolling out through its network of more than 10,000 authorized STIHL Dealers nationwide. The SFA 120 is available as a bare tool for $699.99 or in a $899.99 set that includes one AP 300.0 P battery and the AL 301 Charger.

The SFA 120 is powered by STIHL's new ALLPRO battery system, designed to deliver powerful performance and long runtime. With the ALLPRO AP 300.0 P battery, the SFA 120 is ready to use in outdoor temperatures as low as -4°F, thanks to the battery's cold-start function. There's no gas engine to fuel or pull cord to start, and its two battery bays automatically switch to the second battery when the first runs down. With this launch, STIHL is expanding the capabilities of its battery platform into snow removal while delivering the performance users expect from the brand.

From a light dusting to wet snow, clearing conditions can change throughout the winter. The SFA 120 helps homeowners clear driveways and walkways with a 22-inch clearing width. Its metal-framed steel auger features replaceable rubber paddles designed to absorb impacts from driveway surfaces and reduce stress on the auger. The chute rotates 180 degrees and can be controlled from the handlebar, so users can redirect snow without stopping. LED headlights help illuminate the path ahead, and the handlebar folds for compact storage between storms.

"STIHL has spent a century helping people care for the outdoors, and that work doesn't stop when the growing season ends," said Paul Beblowski, Senior Product Manager at STIHL. "Snow removal is a new category for us, but it's a natural extension of the range of products we offer. With the SFA 120, homeowners who rely on STIHL for their lawns and landscapes can continue to extend the use of their battery system into winter."
