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.
Best suited for
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.
- Mean Green Rival — commercial: daily paid use and high acreage; 60-inch deck; battery (no fuel or engine maintenance)
- Mean Green EVO 96 — commercial: daily paid use and high acreage; 96-inch deck; battery (no fuel or engine maintenance)
What’s different? The 2 differences that matter most, from the published figures.
- Rival has a 60 in (1,524 mm) deck; EVO 96 has a 96 in (2,438 mm) deck, a 36 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 ›
- Rival has a published top speed of 11.5 mph; EVO 96 has a published top speed of 13 mph, a 1.5 mph difference. Top speed is the maker's maximum in transport. Mowing speed is lower and depends on grass, terrain and the deck.
calculated figures and what isn’t comparable
Calculated by MowerFacts
- Rival works out to 5.6 acres/hour; EVO 96 works out to 10.1 acres/hour, a 4.5 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.
Not comparable
- Voltage: not published for EVO 96.
- Weight: not published for EVO 96.
- Deck Material: not published for EVO 96.

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.
