Honda HSM 1590i or Yanmar 1650EX

Hi and good evening from Germany :)
My name is Daniel, and I have been spending the whole evening on the internet searching for a good quality snow blower/snow thrower that will be able to clear my 2 mile driveway :)) I was very keen on ordering the hybrid Honda snow thrower (HSM 1590i), but unfortunately these units are out of stock in Germany and won't be available till next year. My local dealer offered me a Yanmar 1650EX, which - due to the engine specs and auger size - seems even more powerful than the 1590i. Nonetheless I have never heard of Yanmar before and just wanted to know if anybody in this forum ever had experience with this company. Moreover did anybody ever try a hybrid Honda snow thrower/blower before? Is it just a useless gimmick or indeed very helpful?
I already thank you in advance for helping me decide if I should 1 - either go for the Yanmar, or 2- wait till next year and get myself a Honda.
Cheers,
Daniel
