=== 58V product line discontinuation ===&lt;br /&gt;
{{Main|AEG Power Tools 58V Product Line Discontinuation}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
AEG introduced its 58V Commercial Series of outdoor power tools in 2016 and discontinued the platform at the end of 2024.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;aeg-onsite&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;aeg-faq&amp;quot; /&amp;gt; The proprietary 58V batteries required to operate these tools are no longer manufactured. Customers in Australia and New Zealand who invested in the 58V ecosystem were left with functional tools and no replacement battery supply. The discontinuation raised questions about compliance with Australian Consumer Law Section 58, which requires manufacturers to provide spare parts for a reasonable time after purchase.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;accc-guarantees&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Cite web |title=Consumer rights and guarantees |url=https://www.accc.gov.au/consumers/buying-products-and-services/consumer-rights-and-guarantees |website=Australian Competition and Consumer Commission |access-date=2026-03-26}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Products ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
AEG&amp;#039;s current product range is built on its 18V battery platform:&lt;br /&gt;
* 18V PRO Range (drills, drivers, saws, grinders)&lt;br /&gt;
* 18V Sub Compact tools&lt;br /&gt;
* 18V FORCE TABLESS batteries (launched February 2025)&lt;br /&gt;
* 18V dual-battery outdoor equipment (replacement for discontinued 58V line)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The discontinued 58V range included mowers, chainsaws, blowers, trimmers, brushcutters, hedge trimmers, and backpack sprayers.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;aeg-onsite&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
