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.

- Exmark Quest S-Series Mower (54 in deck) has a 24 hp engine; Raptor X has a 21.5 hp engine, a 2.5 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.
- Exmark Quest S-Series Mower (54 in deck) holds 3 gal (11.4 L) of fuel; Raptor X holds 3.5 gal (13.2 L) of fuel, a 0.5 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.
- Exmark Quest S-Series Mower (54 in deck) lists at $4,699; Raptor X lists at $4,349, a $350 difference. List price is the maker's own figure before tax, freight and dealer setup. Dealers set the final price.
