Dyson in the Wild Motorized Brush?

I have the Dyson Big Ball Multi Floor Canister Vacuum and hate how the brush roller is not motorized. It uses suction just to turn the brush. I'm looking at the Ball Animal 2. Can anyone tell me if the brush roller is motorized?

Yeah the turbine heads on the dyson canisters are hit or miss. To be fair I've owned a few canisters that used that technology. They work fine for low pile carpets but they definitely aren't the most "aggressive" or agitate the carpets as well. All dyson Uprights have motorized brush bars. Dyson stopped making motorized brush bar canister style vacuums years ago unfortunately.

500gli is correct, I just cleaned up these and they are all motorized.

DC25, DC41, Ball Animal, Ball Animal 2.

Best of luck.
