All specifications on this page were taken directly from SCAG, the manufacturer. Figures from SCAG EVZ specifications, checked November 2, 2026: SCAG EVZ specifications. Sold by SCAG at home or on the job; classed commercial because it uses a Vanguard commercial battery and is listed with the pro line.
What changes with a battery
There's no engine on the EVZ. The battery runs brushless DC motors, and those turn a pair of electric transaxles. You won't be filling a gas can for this one, and you won't be changing engine oil either.
It comes in one deck size: 52 inches. That's SCAG's Heavy-Duty Hero dual-plate, built from 2 steel plates. Cutting height runs 1.5 to 4.5 inches. With the deck out, it measures 64.5 inches wide, so check it against your gate. It's the same deck build SCAG puts on its gas homeowner zero-turns.
Top speed is 7 mph forward and 4 mph in reverse. Front tires are 11 x 6-5, and the rears are 20 x 10-8. That's a steady, even pace for keeping your own place cut.
Who the EVZ suits
SCAG pitches the EVZ for mowing at home or on the job. If you keep your own place cut, from a big yard to a few acres or more, it's worth a look. A crew that mows close to houses may want one on the trailer too.
The seat is padded, with a thick cushion, extra spring support and armrests. At 700 lb, it won't ask much of your trailer.
Before you decide, think about where you'll charge it and how you mow. Do you cut the whole place in one go, or a section at a time? Call the store and talk through charging with us. You can also come by our Navasota store and ask how it compares with a gas machine.

Questions people ask
What battery does the SCAG EVZ use?
A Vanguard commercial lithium-ion battery rated at 5 kWh. It powers brushless DC motors that drive Hydro-Gear ZT-2800e electric transaxles. Since there's no engine, you won't be buying gas or changing oil. You'll plug it in instead of filling it up.
How much does a SCAG EVZ weigh?
It weighs 700 lb. With the 52-inch deck out, it measures 64.5 inches wide. That's a manageable load if you trailer your mower between properties. You'll still want to check your trailer and ramps before you haul it.
How fast is SCAG's EVZ?
It's rated at 7 mph forward and 4 mph in reverse. That's a steady pace, set by the electric motors and transaxles. If you're mowing your own place rather than racing a crew schedule, you'll find it a comfortable speed to work at.
How much does a SCAG EVZ mower cost?
We keep current pricing on our live inventory page at j5tractors.com, where our Navasota stores list the SCAG mowers they have. Pricing depends on the model and how it's equipped, so check the listing for the 52 in. If the one you want isn't listed, call the store.
