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 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.

What’s different? The 5 differences that matter most, from the published figures.
- Raptor XDX uses a Kawasaki FR730 engine; Raptor X uses a Kawasaki FR651 engine. The engine maker builds the engine; the mower maker chooses the model, rating and fit, so the badge alone does not settle output or longevity.
- Raptor XDX lists at $6,749; Raptor X lists at $4,349, a $2,400 difference. List price is the maker's own figure before tax, freight and dealer setup. Dealers set the final price.
- Raptor XDX has a Hydro-Gear ZT-3100® transmission; Raptor X has a Hydro-Gear ZT-2200 transmission. The transmission grade tracks duty rating and speed. Grade names are each maker's own and are not comparable across brands.
- Raptor XDX has a 60 in (1,524 mm) deck; Raptor X has a 54 in (1,372 mm) deck, a 6 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 ›
- Raptor XDX weighs 710 lbs (322.1 kg); Raptor X weighs 625 lbs (283.5 kg), a 85 lbs difference. Operating weight bears on trailer payload, ramps and soft turf. On its own it says nothing about build quality. What Raptor XDX's weight means for a trailer ›

Calculated by MowerFacts
- Raptor XDX works out to 3.9 acres/hour; Raptor X works out to 3.1 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.
