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.
  1. TrimStar uses a Kawasaki FS691 engine; Turf Tracer X-Series (60 in EFI) uses a Kohler ECV731 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.
  2. TrimStar holds 3.4 gal (12.9 L) of fuel; Turf Tracer X-Series (60 in EFI) holds 5 gal (18.9 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.
  3. TrimStar weighs 695 lbs (315.2 kg); Turf Tracer X-Series (60 in EFI) weighs 840 lbs (381 kg), a 145 lbs difference. Operating weight bears on trailer payload, ramps and soft turf. On its own it says nothing about build quality. What TrimStar's weight means for a trailer ›
  4. TrimStar has a published top speed of 6.3 mph; Turf Tracer X-Series (60 in EFI) has a published top speed of 6.8 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.
  5. TrimStar has a 23 hp engine; Turf Tracer X-Series (60 in EFI) has a 23.5 hp engine, a 0.5 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.
