Compare Mowers
List prices are the manufacturer’s published figures, re-checked daily; they exclude tax, freight and dealer setup.
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.
- Cub Cadet PRO X 648 — commercial: daily paid use and high acreage; 48-inch deck; gas powered
- Husqvarna Z448 — commercial: daily paid use and high acreage; 48-inch deck; gas powered
What’s different? The 3 differences that matter most, from the published figures.
- PRO X 648 weighs 1,015 lbs (460.4 kg); Z448 weighs 725 lbs (328.9 kg), a 290 lbs difference. Operating weight bears on trailer payload, ramps and soft turf. On its own it says nothing about build quality. What PRO X 648's weight means for a trailer ›
- PRO X 648 lists at $10,799; Z448 lists at $8,899, a $1,900 difference. List price is the maker's own figure before tax, freight and dealer setup. Dealers set the final price.
- PRO X 648 holds 7.5 gal (28.4 L) of fuel; Z448 holds 6 gal (22.7 L) of fuel, a 1.5 gal 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.
