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 654 — commercial: daily paid use and high acreage; 54-inch deck; gas powered
- Spartan Spartan SRT-XDe — commercial: daily paid use and high acreage; 54-inch deck; gas powered
What’s different? The 5 differences that matter most, from the published figures.
- PRO X 654 has a 10 ga shell w/ 7 ga top & bottom reinforcement deck; Spartan SRT-XDe has a 6" Deep, Reinforced 7 Gauge Full-Floating Deck deck.
- PRO X 654 holds 7.5 gal (28.4 L) of fuel; Spartan SRT-XDe holds 9.5 gal (36 L) of fuel, a 2 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.
- PRO X 654 weighs 1,080 lbs (489.9 kg); Spartan SRT-XDe weighs 1,192 lbs (540.7 kg), a 112 lbs difference. Operating weight bears on trailer payload, ramps and soft turf. On its own it says nothing about build quality. What PRO X 654's weight means for a trailer ›
- PRO X 654 has a published top speed of 10 mph; Spartan SRT-XDe has a published top speed of 11 mph, a 1 mph difference. Top speed is the maker's maximum in transport. Mowing speed is lower and depends on grass, terrain and the deck.
- PRO X 654 lists at $11,199; Spartan SRT-XDe lists at $11,899, a $700 difference. List price is the maker's own figure before tax, freight and dealer setup. Dealers set the final price.
calculated figures and what isn’t comparable
Calculated by MowerFacts
- PRO X 654 works out to 4.4 acres/hour; Spartan SRT-XDe works out to 4.8 acres/hour, a 0.4 acres/hour difference. Calculated by MowerFacts from deck width and the published top speed at 80% efficiency; it is not a manufacturer figure, and real mowing is slower.
