I was just about ready to pull the trigger on the 576 XP and then I spent an entire day cutting wood with my 562xp (ported by Mitch) and I totally had a blast. My saw runs even better in the 2nd season than the first season I had it.
I had so much fun with the 562xp, that I decided that I am going to wait for Husky to replace their 576xp with the same technology as the 562xp.
I know Husky has to be working hard on this upgrade for a couple of reasons:
I am betting the cat will be out of the bag in late 2014 if not sooner.
- 576XP got off to a bad start with the first generation auto tune that was buggy at first. Now when people research this saw, they think this is a bad saw because of the initial reviews on it.
- I think Husky wants to hit a home run in the 70cc market so they can have a saw that is not only awesome, but has awesome reviews all the way from day one.
- The reason no one knows the replacement is happening is because more people like me won't purchase the 576xp which is actually a good saw - as they will wait.
I still love my Stihl weed eaters and my Stihl dealer. I think I am going to keep my pro saws in the the Husky family from now on.
My heart was stolen by 262xp never been the same since.

Always liked the 262s and my favorite the 288s.My heart was stolen by 262xp never been the same since. Love my huskys
If you watch the videos, they stress over and over should've gone the extra mile to improve cooling, using new materials to shield the carb from excessive heat from the cylinder..
Sounds like Husqvarna actually did some real R&D with this saw before releasing it. Hopefully this saw will be a huge success in the commercial market.

I think to test the hell out of it. Fair amount of problems with the 550 and 562. Love those saws but they have not been bulletproof.With such a large population, a large forestry industry, and large amounts of forest land, why is Husqvarna waiting to save availability in the US until the end/last?

Can you say R&DI was told by local shops in BC here that they will be sending this model to test with fallers out here in the fall.
