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.
- Grasshopper 725KT — commercial: daily paid use and high acreage; 52-inch deck; gas powered
- Scag EVZ — commercial: daily paid use and high acreage; 52-inch deck; gas powered
What’s different? The 2 differences that matter most, from the published figures.
- 725KT lists at $18,550; EVZ lists at $13,999, a $4,551 difference. List price is the maker's own figure before tax, freight and dealer setup. Dealers set the final price.
- 725KT has a published top speed of 9 mph; EVZ has a published top speed of 7 mph, a 2 mph difference. Top speed is the maker's maximum in transport. Mowing speed is lower and depends on grass, terrain and the deck.
calculated figures and what isn’t comparable
Calculated by MowerFacts
- 725KT works out to 3.8 acres/hour; EVZ works out to 2.9 acres/hour, a 0.8 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.
