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.

What’s different? The 5 differences that matter most, from the published figures.
- ZT HD 60 KAWASAKI holds 5.1 gal (19.3 L) of fuel; Raptor XD holds 3.5 gal (13.2 L) of fuel, a 1.6 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.
- ZT HD 60 KAWASAKI lists at $6,999; Raptor XD lists at $5,849, a $1,150 difference. List price is the maker's own figure before tax, freight and dealer setup. Dealers set the final price.
- ZT HD 60 KAWASAKI weighs 843 lbs (382.4 kg); Raptor XD weighs 681 lbs (308.9 kg), a 162 lbs difference. Operating weight bears on trailer payload, ramps and soft turf. On its own it says nothing about build quality. What ZT HD 60 KAWASAKI's weight means for a trailer ›
- ZT HD 60 KAWASAKI cuts from 1.5 in (38 mm) to 5 in (127 mm); Raptor XD cuts from 1.5 in (38 mm) to 4.5 in (114 mm). The cut-height range is the shortest and tallest cut the deck offers. Most lawns are kept well inside it.
- ZT HD 60 KAWASAKI has a published top speed of 8 mph; Raptor XD has a published top speed of 7.5 mph, a 0.5 mph difference. Top speed is the maker's maximum in transport. Mowing speed is lower and depends on grass, terrain and the deck.
