As the world progressively gets more up-in-arms over the noise and emissions of gas motors, particularly in Pro lawn care applications, we’re learning that modern problems require modern solutions. That’s where the Greenworks battery-powered line of commercial zero turn mowers (and two residential models) come in. They already make one of the best electric lawn mowers for consumers. These battery-powered ZT mowers have all the tools you need to not only get through the entire workday with power and speed but also drop the decibels and emissions to levels that keep everyone happy.
Greenworks 60-inch Ride-On Zero Turn Mower
As the king of the Greenworks line, the Lithium Z GZ 60R mower offers the Pro a 60-inch steel cutting deck that can tackle up to 12 acres on a single charge from the mower’s 82V battery.
It features two 1.7KW brushless motors that keep you moving at a top speed of up to 10 mph. Meanwhile, three more 1.5KW brushless motors drive the cutting blades at a near-constant 17,000 FPM to get through grass quickly and efficiently. And, because grass types vary and there’s no one-height-fits-all approach, this Greenworks ZT lets you set your cut height anywhere between 1.5 to 6 inches.
The Greenworks Lithium Z GZ 60R Zero Turn Mower retails for $20,999 and comes with a 2-year warranty on the mower, and a 3-year warranty on the battery.
