A side-by-side reference of each model's stated specifications. MowerFacts doesn’t give opinions: where a published, spec-derived rule can separate machines we mark a Data Pick and show the rule; here, read the values and decide what fits your needs.

What’s different? The 5 differences that matter most, from the published figures.
- Rebel weighs 627 kg (1,382 lbs); 2026 ZT Avenger weighs 338 kg (745 lbs), a 289 kg difference. Operating weight bears on trailer payload, ramps and soft turf. On its own it says nothing about build quality. What Rebel's weight means for a trailer ›
- Rebel holds 49 L (12.9 gal) of fuel; 2026 ZT Avenger holds 22.7 L (6 gal) of fuel, a 26.3 L difference. Tank size bounds how long a machine runs between stops. Consumption varies with engine, load and speed, so hours per tank are not fixed.
- Rebel has a published top speed of 12 mph; 2026 ZT Avenger has a published top speed of 7 mph, a 5 mph difference. Top speed is the maker's maximum in transport. Mowing speed is lower and depends on grass, terrain and the deck.
- Rebel has a 31 hp engine; 2026 ZT Avenger has a 23 hp engine, a 8 hp difference. Published horsepower is the maker's rating at a stated engine speed. It is a different measure from displacement, and two engines of equal rating can pull differently.
- Rebel has a 3 Gauge / 6mm deck; 2026 ZT Avenger has a 7 Gauge/4.55mm deck.
