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 has a 48 in (1,219 mm) deck; HusqvarnaZ572XS has a 72 in (1,829 mm) deck, a 24 in difference. Deck width sets how much grass each pass covers. Mowing time also depends on ground speed, turns and obstacles, so a wider deck alone does not fix the job's length. Time both decks on your own lawn ›
- V548X has a 24.5 hp engine; HusqvarnaZ572XS has a 38.5 hp engine, a 14 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 lists at $12,299; HusqvarnaZ572XS lists at $18,399, a $6,100 difference. List price is the maker's own figure before tax, freight and dealer setup. Dealers set the final price.
- V548X has a Pump/Wheel motor transmission; HusqvarnaZ572XS has a Hydrostatic transmission. The transmission grade tracks duty rating and speed. Grade names are each maker's own and are not comparable across brands.
- V548X holds 7 gal (26.5 L) of fuel; HusqvarnaZ572XS holds 12 gal (45.4 L) of fuel, a 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.
