Compare Mowers
Prices are the recommended retail prices published by each manufacturer’s Australian site, in AUD, as read on the date shown on each model’s page; dealers set the final price.
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.
Best suited for
What each model is built for, from its duty class and key specs. This is a neutral reference — MowerFacts does not rank one model above another.

- John Deere S100 Lawn Tractor — residential: typical home lawns; 42-inch deck; gas powered
What’s different? The 2 differences that matter most, from the published figures.
- R 316 TsX AWD runs on Petrol; S100 Lawn Tractor runs on Gasoline. Fuel type sets what you buy and store; it is not a measure of power.
- R 316 TsX AWD has a 603 cc (36.8 ci) engine; S100 Lawn Tractor has a 500 cc (30.5 ci) engine, a 103 cc difference. Displacement is the engine's size, not its output. A larger engine is not necessarily a more powerful one.
