Features
Elite Value
The ZT Elite has long been our biggest seller, and it's no wonder why. This mower is built as tough as they come with our patented front suspension and superior comfort. You'll get a quality cut at an even better price.
Mowing Is A Breeze
Formed from tough 7-gauge steel with reinforced edges, the unique baffling system maximises airflow for greater grass lift and a cleaner cut. You can easily adjust the deck height to get your lawn looking exactly how you want.
Your Comfort Matters
A revolutionary new addition to the ZT Elite is the All-New Independent Front Suspension. This patented innovation helps the mower glide over any terrain, creating a smoother cut and a more comfortable ride. It's so smooth, we named it EZ-Ride®. If the steering feels tighter and smoother, you can thank our steering dampening system. It delivers better steering response and maneuverability. Couple all that with the higher-backed adjustable seat equipped with padded armrests, and this is the smoothest, most comfortable ride you can get on a zero-turn mower in this class. We even threw in a cup holder.

PUT THIS DECK TO THE TEST
If you want a durable and tough residential mower, you've come to the right place. ZT Elite was custom made for the demanding homeowner, and it won't bend or wobble under the stress of everyday mowing. It's built on a strong 50x50mm all steel rail frame, with industry-leading 9.5mm steel front forks and a solid steel, all-welded deck. It's the heaviest-built deck you can get in this class of mowers. Formed from heavy-duty 7-gauge (4.55mm) steel with reinforced edges, the unique baffling system maximises airflow for greater grass lift and a cleaner cut. Plus, thanks to our left or right side deck lift pedal, you can easily adjust deck height for a perfect cut time and time again.
Driving to be better
Bad Boy continues to set the standard for zero-turn performance. The ZT Elite is powered by a proven Kawasaki engine, built to deliver dependable performance year after year, season after season. Our new model even comes equipped with a Commercial-Style Drive Arm Actuator System. You'll love the class-leading torque, higher horsepower versus the competition, and the commercially rated hydraulics, unheard of on a residential mower. Then we topped it off with class-leading fuel capacity of 24.6L. It's power and performance at an unbeatable value.
