2019/2020 was the introduction of the new series and it has been expanded upon in 2021.

Looks like the 3-digit model number is being phased out.

4-digit model number, followed by an X = its an Echo PRO series.
Think: alloy, powerful, lightweight, warranty.

For instance: NEW for 2021 Echo CS-4310SX.
**_ _ = 43-cc
_ _ *_ = 1st Generation (engine) of this model.
_ _ _ * = 0, Major Revision within the Generation.
(Copied from the *********)

My present chainsaws are all Stihl.
I'm looking to give Echo another try.

That is what I know and I'm asking if any of you know if, or when, the 'CS-4310SX' will be available to the US market?
The international site has only said: post summer 2021.
It is advertised as the lightest in its class and specs show it has the same horsepower as the, no longer available, Stihl ms241.

Looking for a quote on the Echo CS-4310SX with 14-in bar.

Update 1 : 30-Sept, 3rd digit is Engine Gen. per post below.
 
Other day at my dealer- 2x620pw, 1 x 620P (now mine). No 590 or other med-large saws
a few smaller saws, was not really looking, but seemed like none of the newer style. Lots of empty space around both the Echo and Husky shelves.
 
I had myself almost talked into the 4910 (or maybe 501) and then you toss this out!
Looks like just what I'm looking for except not available. Guess I'll fight with the Stihl MS250 for a while longer......

Has a slightly better cutting performance than 241, originally built for Japanese market where it replaces the dominant CS42RS since the end of 2019.
Expect the price to be in the same ballpark as 241/543 as it is built without compromise for daily intense use.

P.S. The third digit in the naming stands for engine generation.
 
Just now:
30-Sept-2021 from Echo USA.
