Summary
The XRZ is a commercial spec mower that is ideal for large lifestyle blocks and commercial mowing. It has commercial spec transaxles, a tough, durable design and a great warranty, along with premium added comfort features to give a great ride.
Industry Leading Warranty
The BOB-CAT XRZ has a 6-year / 600 hour limited warranty. Unlike other zero turn mower warranties, this covers warranty costs of parts and labour for the full period - unlike other brands in which only parts cost is covered after just three years.
Productivity & Durability
The BOB-CAT® XRZ line is powered by reliable Kawasaki® FR engines and commercial drive system powered by Hydro-Gear® ZT-3100 transaxles to produce a ground speed of up to 13km/h. It has a one piece, welded steel frame - unlike the bolted or riveted cee-section frame many other zero turns have.
Coupled with a large 23L capacity fuel tank, you have more than enough power and run time to tackle the largest properties. The XRZ Cutting height can be easily controlled on-the-fly with the quick-lift foot pedal allowing for cutting ranges from 1.5 to 4.875 inches in quarter-inch increments or instantly as needed.
Comfort and Control
Designed with your comfort in mind, the new BOB-CAT® XRZ™ features a premium high back elastomeric vibration control (EVC) seat with armrests that reduce vibration for all-day riding comfort. Wide 22-inch rear drive wheels help smooth the ride over undulating terrain and provides added traction on slopes.
Cut Quality
The rugged design of the new BOB-CAT® TufDeck™ Professional-Grade Mower Deck with patented Double-Wave Baffle System makes grass stand up and take what's coming to it from blades that spin up to 18,800 fpm. An extra-wide polymer impact resistant discharge chute shrugs off dings, while fanning clippings fine - eliminating clumps for a crisp clean cut.
The cut quality in New Zealand is greatly improved thanks to the adjustable Deck Lip, and the Double Wave Baffles, which make this mower more capable of mowing in our long, wet conditions.
Reduced Maintenance & Easy Service
The XRZ’s open frame design provides easy access to the engine, filters, belts, battery and more – taking the hassle out of routine maintenance. Flip up foot plate allows for easy access to belts and pulleys for cleaning and service. And, because all BOB-CAT® mowers share a common design, parts are readily available and affordable too.

Why upgrade to the XRZ from the CRZ?
Many of our customers choose to upgrade from the CRZ to the XRZ zero turn mower to get additional comfort and speed, plus commercial transaxles. Typically, this is for large lifestyle block / rural customers or mowing contractors who are doing higher hours than residential type users.
It is also exceptional value for money considering the commercial build.
