The Bad Boy ZT Elite 48″ Zero-Turn Mower has set the standard for value, performance, and durability in the residential zero-turn market for more than a decade. As Bad Boy’s best-selling model, the ZT Elite continues to deliver commercial-inspired construction, smooth handling, and exceptional cut quality—making it one of the best values available for homeowners today.
Powered by a dependable 726cc Kohler Pro V-Twin engine, the ZT Elite provides smooth, consistent power for tackling lawns and properties with confidence. Built on a rugged 2″ x 2″ all-steel frame, this mower features industry-leading ⅜″ steel front forks and a solid steel, formed and welded cutting deck designed to last.
The 7-gauge fabricated steel deck with reinforced edges and a high-airflow baffling system delivers superior grass lift for a clean, even cut. A lower center of gravity improves traction and stability, especially on uneven terrain.
Comfort and control are a priority, with a cushioned comfort seat with padded armrests, steering dampening for tighter and smoother response, and a foot-assist deck lift with dial-style height adjustment that makes dialing in the perfect cut quick and easy. Class-leading 6.5-gallon fuel capacity, deep storage, and an integrated cup holder round out this homeowner favorite.
