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.
- Kubota ZG222 — commercial: daily paid use and high acreage; 48-inch deck; gas powered

What’s different? The 5 differences that matter most, from the published figures.
- ZG222 uses a Kubota KGZ770-E2-MA3 engine; F2690 uses a Kubota D1105 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.
- ZG222 holds 7.1 gal (26.9 L) of fuel; F2690 holds 16.1 gal (61 L) of fuel, a 9 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.
- ZG222 runs on Gasoline; F2690 runs on Diesel. Fuel type sets what you buy and store; it is not a measure of power.
- ZG222 weighs 1,166 lbs (529 kg); F2690 weighs 1,590 lbs (721.2 kg), a 424 lbs difference. Operating weight bears on trailer payload, ramps and soft turf. On its own it says nothing about build quality. What ZG222's weight means for a trailer ›
- ZG222 has a published top speed of 9 mph; F2690 has a published top speed of 12.4 mph, a 3.4 mph difference. Top speed is the maker's maximum in transport. Mowing speed is lower and depends on grass, terrain and the deck.

Calculated by MowerFacts
- ZG222 works out to 3.5 acres/hour; F2690 works out to 6.0 acres/hour, a 2.5 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.
Verified means each manufacturer publishes the figure. A bigger number is only a bigger number; nothing here says which machine is better. The full specification table is below.
