Cub Cadet ZT1 42 E

The Cub Cadet Ultima ZT1 42E redefines what a zero turn mower can be. As the industry’s first fully electric model in its class, the ZT1 42E offers a powerful, efficient, and environmentally friendly alternative to petrol-powered machines — without sacrificing performance.

Its advanced 56V Max 60Ah lithium-ion battery system delivers 3000Wh of energy, allowing you to mow up to 2.5 acres or operate continuously for up to 1.5 hours with consistent power from start to finish. Unlike traditional engines, the electric drive system provides smooth, quiet operation with zero emissions and minimal maintenance. No oil changes, no spark plugs, no fuel — just charge and mow.

The 42-inch twin-blade cutting deck is built on a square tubular steel frame for exceptional strength and reliability. With 15 cutting height positions and an easy foot pedal lift system, adjusting your cut is fast and intuitive. Dual LED headlights allow for early morning or late afternoon mowing, while the lap bar zero turn control system ensures precision and agility around garden beds, trees, and landscape features.

Engineered for comfort, convenience, and professional-level results, the ZT1 42E combines the strength of the Ultima Series with the efficiency of electric power. It’s quiet, clean, cost-effective, and requires a fraction of the maintenance of petrol models — making it a smart choice for anyone ready to embrace the future of lawn care.
