SCAG V-Ride II 48

The SCAG V-Ride II 48" is the perfect choice for contractors who need commercial-grade performance in a smaller, more agile footprint. With its powerful 22hp Kawasaki FX Series engine and legendary 48" Velocity Plus™ cutting deck, it delivers exceptional airflow, superior cut quality, and long-term durability on a wide range of grass types and terrain.

Operating at speeds up to 16.9 km/h forward and 8 km/h in reverse, this mower dramatically increases daily mowing productivity. Its dual Hydro-Gear 12cc pumps and high-torque 14ci cast-iron wheel motors ensure smooth, responsive control, even in challenging environments.

Operator comfort is a top priority with a wide coil-suspension platform, oversized padded cushion, ergonomic control levers, and exceptional visibility thanks to the stand-on design. The mower’s low centre of gravity improves stability on slopes, while SCAG’s Tiger Eye™ monitoring system provides real-time performance data for confident operation.

Built with SCAG’s signature heavy-duty steel construction, all-metal pulleys, removable servicing panels, and corrosion-resistant components, the V-Ride II 48" is engineered to handle continuous commercial workloads. Compact yet incredibly capable, it is ideal for professional contractors who work in tight areas but still demand maximum power and durability.
