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.
- V548X lists at $12,299; PRO X 648 lists at $10,799, a $1,500 difference. List price is the maker's own figure before tax, freight and dealer setup. Dealers set the final price.
- V548X has a 24.5 hp engine; PRO X 648 has a 22 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.
- V548X has a 52 ci (852.1 cc) engine; PRO X 648 has a 44.3 ci (726 cc) engine, a 7.7 ci difference. Displacement is the engine's size, not its output. A larger engine is not necessarily a more powerful one.
- V548X weighs 1,140 lbs (517.1 kg); PRO X 648 weighs 1,015 lbs (460.4 kg), a 125 lbs difference. Operating weight bears on trailer payload, ramps and soft turf. On its own it says nothing about build quality. What V548X's weight means for a trailer ›
- V548X holds 7 gal (26.5 L) of fuel; PRO X 648 holds 7.5 gal (28.4 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.
