The EGO Z6 E-STEER Zero Turn Riding Mower. Zero Compromises?

Posted by Martin Regtien | Oct 3, 2023 | Lifestyle , Pulse Awards - Editor's Choice | 3

With the countless EGO Power tools we have reviewed on this site, the new EGO Z6 with E-STEER reaches a new zenith for DRN: it’s the most expensive product we have tested in our 20 years of publishing.

However, as always, we look at the Value-for-Money factor, not so much the initial investment but the cost of ownership as well.

And this is where the EGO Z6 really surprises.

The Z6 launched a couple of years ago with the traditional “rowing bars” of all zero turn mowers. No problems if you’re already used to steering these machines that way.

I found that a bit of a learning curve. It’s not as intuitive and easy as a normal steering wheel.

The “E-STEER” technology was introduced this year and opens up the highly manoeuvrable zero turn mowers to a whole new market.

Not just the retired folk on a lifestyle block with acres to mow but for everyone who found the “handlebars” too daunting to handle.

Have a look at the video at the end of this article to see how easy it is for a 16-year-old friend to mow with this Z6 after not even 2 minutes of instruction.

First, there is the cool F1 factor: look at that steering wheel with the flip paddles behind it (the ones with the big R on them).

No, it doesn’t stand for Racing even though the Z6 is no slouch on the grass, cutting at 5-11km/hr, or up to 13km/hr in travel mode. The R stands for Reverse – flip one or both to reverse and flip both as part of the start-up sequence. Just like your drone.

Notice all the information is right in your line of sight. From the “Fuel“ Gauge in big numbers (you would have cottoned on that this is a battery powered machine, right?) to driving mode and speed as well as blade speeds and down to individual battery status.

On batteries, have a look at the battery compartment! Room for 6 humongous batteries.

This model comes with four 12Ah units and they cost almost $700 each…

I have added a 7.5AH and a 5AH battery from other EGO tools.

If you have already invested in the EGO ecosystem, you similarly might have a few smaller capacity batteries which you can insert in the spare slots. Any battery from EGO will fit in any of their tools. A great advantage.

Probably also under the COOL heading are the 32 LED lights that surround this machine. You’ve got the running lights and the high intensity headlights for when you’re running out of daylight, but you want to finish the job. When reversing, the lights at the back flash as an extra warning for others.

Having worked my 20+ years old ride-on mower to the bone, my weary bones are also crying out for some comfort. This EGO machine dishes that out in spades.

The seat is arguably the most comfortable on any mower: great padding, fully adjustable and you can dial in your suspension level. You also have armrests that can be flipped up and out of the way for getting on and off the mower.

If you have long, boring stretches of lawn to mow, cruise control might be great. One press on the dash and you can stretch your legs.

Naturally, you might want to listen to some music on your phone whilst cruising along and you can: this Ego is super quiet. Earmuffs not necessary but earbuds are great. Your phone has its own safe slot to slide in and the storage compartment on the other side of your seat has room for gloves, goggles and the like and has a USB-C charge point.

Well, after the glowing report on the creature comforts, does the Z6 cut it when it comes to its purpose? Does it cut evenly and how does it handle even the tall grass?

EGO knows a thing or two about what makes a good cut and the series of push mowers, including self-propelled ones, (see our review here ) they brought to market, bears that out.

The Z6 does a beautiful cut in any of the height settings, from 25 to 100mm. The 2 blades on this 42” deck (107cm) are driven by their own brushless electric motors. If the going gets tough they spool up like a turbo.

As mentioned before in many of my EGO reviews, our property has quite a few acres of undulating, rough paddocks.  Roos help out a bit with keeping the green stuff down but they leave the weeds, bracken and other small bushes.

So what about cutting bracken and bushes?

No probs. Just don’t go crazy though.

I’ve seen some redneck reviews on YouTube where they literally thrash the machine around and show that it is capable of even pushing down small saplings!

I’m a bit more conservative as I realise that my place is a far cry from suburban landscapes already…

Apart from some overload mower cutouts because of very dense and high grass/weeds or hitting a big stick, this ZTR mower performed flawlessly. I usually set the deck height lever at its highest setting to get through the rough stuff first.

If the Z6 can handle my property I have no qualms about recommending it for any of the lawns and turfs it was designed for.

I found this mower’s ability to negotiate our sandy hills also better than my old ride on mower. And safer too, thanks to its low centre of gravity.

When you’re all done you might blow off the dust and detritus off the mower but before you put it away, there’s one more ritual.

Highly recommended is to wash the underside of the deck. That’s where accumulating clippings cling to the deck and over time could cause corrosion. (Note to Editor: for some reason I seem to be heavy on C words in this review…)

To make this chore a lot easier, EGO put a wash port on the deck. Clip on a garden hose and run the blades at full speed for a minute. Does an amazing job if you put the deck down to its lowest height.

Under this heading I cover mainly endurance as I continually see this pop up as a major concern in other reviews.

EGO states that you can “cut up to 2.5 acres* on a single charge” with the four included 56V 12.0Ah ARC Lithium batteries.

The * asterisk in that sentence refers to the following qualification: “Cut up to is based on Z6 features set at standard drive mode, highest drive speed, lowest blade speed and 20% removal rate, output may vary dependent upon individual unique location and requirements.

What that means is that if you take it easy on the blades, take off just a few inches of your lawn and drive fast, it might do the 2.5 acres.

For some that seems like a limitation, which indeed you don’t have with a petrol ride-on.

It’s the typical EV conundrum: range anxiety, which is a real thing when driving your car on public roads.

In reality, most folks don’t have enough acreage to be worried about this.

What about getting stuck down in the paddock when the batteries are drained?

Fat chance for that because when the batteries get critically low, the Z6 goes into Limp-Home mode to get you back to your charging area. Even if that is up to 1000m away. You get plenty of warnings: the blades stop, and beeps and red flashes from the dashboard will also get your attention.

Extra batteries will help to extend the endurance.

Frankly, after an hour or so of mowing some rough terrain, I can use a break, recharge my batteries and those in the mower.

The Z6 comes with a massive 1600W charger, capable of charging all batteries at the same time just like a Tesla. The charger can be hung on a wall, out of the way.

2.5 hours to fully charge all my 6 batteries (60Ah in total) from 6-100%. In fact, the first 50% takes exactly 1 hour and waiting for the last 1 % is like watching grass grow…

Whilst charging, you can follow the progress on the dashboard or on the individual fuel gauges of the batteries.

CONSTRUCTION

We’ll have more to say about the supreme built quality of the Z6 later.

Suffice to say that all the mowers in the Z6 range carry a 5-year warranty and 3 years on the batteries.

The whole mower construction is weather resistant IPX4 rated, which means it’s not fussed with the occasional rain shower.

It is interesting to note that, even though the Z6 is purely a residential riding mower, many commercial operators are considering – and some already are using these in their daily work.

Together with the other EGO garden tools, many of which also have commercial models, these operators realise that quiet machines with no smell or smoke are much appreciated by their clients.

COST of OPERATING

This is what makes investing in a Z6 mower so interesting: the cost of operating and maintaining this battery powered machine is very inexpensive compared with petrol mowers.

Case in point: my old ride on mower has cost me many times its original purchase price in maintenance and repairs over twenty years. Plus the expense of petrol.

The Z6 is virtually maintenance free with careful use. And to recharge the batteries from 10 – 100 % is less than a dollar at current rates.

Granted, the investment of AUD10499 for this ZT4205E-S model, whilst reasonable, is not for everyone.

However, it is more than balanced out over the long run, particularly as many petrol mowers seem to also have long wait times for spare parts these days…

CUSTOMISING ACCESSORIES

Whilst the Z6 comes with everything you need, there are a few extra options available as well.

For Aussies working under the blistering summer sun, a sunshade canopy would be great.

Also, a bagging option if you’d rather not mulch or just use the side discharge.

Other interesting accessories include a rear bumper, a large toolbox that sits behind the operator and a cover for the Z6.

There are few concerns, if any.

I might have a couple of small improvement suggestions for an already excellent product.

1. The PTO switch for blade engagement can also be switched on when the mower is stationary with the parking brake on. This is to enable deck cleaning when using the wash port, but at other times it would be safer for bystanders or kids to have that disabled in parking mode.

People seem to be really attracted to big red knobs… So perhaps another safety switch for the cleaning operation?

2. I was looking at some sort of clamp to hold up the side discharge flap when parking the mower in my crowded shed. See this temporary solution.

This would also be good to prevent the flap from “noisily flapping” around when just driving (often with my little trailer) on bumpy terrain…

I could of course use an ocky strap or put the mulch plug in place but an EGO clamp that would fit in the storage compartment would be nice.

If we have been impressed by the built quality of EGO equipment before, we are in awe of the supreme attention to detail exhibited in the Z6.

As a relative newcomer to the riding mower market, EGO could not just present a similar product as the other brands but needed to exceed those in quality and innovation.

Innovation seems to be the name of the game for EGO. There are some amazing new products coming down the pipe in 2024 and DRN will be one of the first sites to inform you about them.

COMMENDATION

We don’t give our very highest commendation, the DRN PULSE AWARD, lightly to a product.

I have not handed out this Editor’s Choice accolade in over two years, but the EGO Z6 with E-STEER deserves it fully!

Congratulations!

Hi, I would like to know what you do in the winter time when you’re not cutting the grass. Are the batteries fine and the mower? Why is sitting in the garage or should you take the batteries out and put them inside your house? Thank you very much

Hi Frank, Good question. When I’m not cutting the grass (in our summer down here in Australia) I still have good use for the EGO Z6. I hitch on the little trailer and do other gardening jobs on my property. Yes, batteries are fine but if you’re in a cold climate it’s probably better to take them out and keep them in the house. The manual will tell you the best storage options. Cheers, Martin

I have a Z6 with 14 hours on it when it broke down. Good luck trying to get service. Biggest problems I ever had with lawn equipment. Three weeks and still in service.

EGO Z6 Zero Turn Mower Video Review

After months of discreet previews and sneak peeks, EGO has finally pulled back the curtain on their brand new 42-inch Z6 Zero Turn Riding Mower ZT4204L , and it is glorious. EGO is keeping their ZT on the same 56V ARC Lithium platform as the rest of their lineup. The mower comes kitted with four 10Ah batteries but can hold up to six. The anticipated higher capacity batteries provide the potential for up to 3360 watt-hours.

For their first ZT, EGO went with a 42-inch deck that uses a pair of 21-inch blades. Its four independent brushless motors give it the gas equivalent of a 22 HP gas engine, and a top transport speed of 8 MPH. Cutting speeds range from 3-7 MPH and in three drive modes: Control, Standard, and Sport.

That’s only what you see on the surface of this powerful electric zero-turn—its stout feature set includes Bluetooth-enabled controls, an adjustable hydraulic seat, and 32 LED lights covering the front, side, and rear of the mower. The Z6 is a model that shakes up what you can expect from a battery-powered zero-turn, at a $5000 price point that is pleasantly unexpected.

Editor’s Note: Read our full review here !

• EGO 42″ Z6 ZERO TURN RIDING MOWER

Full Transcript

Let’s start with a tour around the mower. As you can see, it maintains a fairly traditional ZT profile with independently-controlled 18-inch drive wheels on the back and 11-inch 360° caster wheels on the front to help you make those tight turns using the lap bars. 

Looking at the front, you can see the LEDs. These are always on when the mower is powered up but hit the light button on the control panel, and you’ll activate even more to help you mow in low or even no light. There’s another set of LEDs on the rear that blink when you’re in Reverse to get the attention of anyone who might walk across your path.

Moving around to the driver’s right, you’ll find the manual deck height adjustment bar. It adjusts the 42-inch steel deck between 1.5 and 4.5 inches with 10 levels. 

Further around and up is the LCD control panel. We’ll come back to that in a second because there’s a lot going on there. 

Behind the seat, you’ll find the battery bank. The kit includes four 10Ah 56V ArcLithium batteries, but it holds up to six packs. The great thing is that this mower runs on the exact same 56V batteries you use for EGO’s other lawn care tools—making this ZT compatible with all of them. If you want to swap in other packs, just keep in mind that you need at least 15Ah worth of batteries to mow.

Moving to the left of the driver is our charging port. We think onboard charging is a big deal for convenience. You don’t ever have to remove the batteries if you don’t need to. The charger itself is pretty substantial, but it has keyholes on the back to hang it on a wall and gives you a generous 15-foot reach. 

As far as actual charging goes, it’s an impressive system. We ran the four batteries down to 6% when the mower kicked into limp mode. From there, it took 1 hour, 53 minutes to get back to 100% charge. 

The EGO Z6 gives you a handy storage area with a magnetic closure and interior USB charging. It’s big enough to store your phone, wallet, and keys if you like. Next to that is a welcome cup holder with two sizes that hold a water bottle, malt beverage, or even an oversized mug from your local corner store. Moving forward and looking down, EGO includes a handy deck wash connection for your hose.

At the center of it all, EGO placed a pretty comfortable seat with moveable armrests. Clint was able to find a good setting for his considerably lighter frame but did bottom it out in bumpier areas. A few turns to tighten it up and he was good to go. On the other hand, my 6-foot, 2-inch, 200-pound build needed to increase the tension and set the seat back some, but I was also able to find a good fit with room to spare. 

To turn the mower on, make sure you have the key inserted first. A press of the power button shows you your charge status. Press and hold it to bring the Z6 to life and push the parking brake on the left side with your foot to release it. 

You have separate controls for drive speed on the left and blade speed on the right—which takes some getting used to. Each has four levels to choose from and, if you hold the button at the top drive speed, you can kick into a 5th mode that turns off the blades and lets you travel at your highest speed—roughly 8 MPH. The mowing speeds run between 3 and 7 MPH. Also, if you want to change speeds or modes, you can’t do it on the fly. You’ll need to stop and put the lap bars in the park position first.

The bottom two blade speeds are good for light cutting in dry conditions and the top two speeds are better for thicker, wetter grass. Similar to the drive speed, there’s a turbo mode for the blades if you press and hold the button after getting to the top speed. It’s great for particularly tough patches, but we didn’t find it necessary for any of our cutting.

Across the bottom of the control screen, you’ll see three drive modes. These define the aggressiveness of the acceleration and turning. 

Control mode is great if you’re new to zero turn mowers or need to be careful around landscape obstacles. Standard mode feels very much like most residential zero turns we’ve used while Sport mode gets you into the quickest accelerations and turns. We were even able to spin the tires slightly in Sport mode. We recommend sticking with the Standard mode unless you’re an advanced ZT veteran or need to outrun that summer thunderstorm. 

There’s plenty of other information on the control panel, including connecting to your mower with Bluetooth and calibrating for left or right drift. Check out your manual for more details on what’s in there. 

Looking forward from the driver’s seat, an LED indicator sits between your feet to let you keep an eye on your charge levels without taking your eyes off of what’s in front of you. It’s brilliant and we LOVE it!

Like many ZTs, the long wheelbase of the mower becomes noticeable when you’re mowing around objects. It’s certainly capable of tight zero-radius turns, but getting the cutting deck to hug smaller trees, buried tank covers, and other obstacles is a challenge. 

All that’s great, but how well does it actually cut? 

EGO claims the Z6 has the power of a 22 HP gas engine. With that in mind, we weren’t testing to see if it’s good for a battery-powered ZT as much as we were comparing it to the feel of cutting with a gas zero turn. 

We did our testing in January which is still mowing season in central Florida. Cutting a combination of Bahai and St. Augustine grasses, the cut quality was excellent—taking our test yard from 5 inches down to 3-1/2 inches. At least that’s what we presume the height was considering the adjustments seem to take place in 1/3-inch increments. 

There was also plenty of power behind the blades. We could cut at the lower two speeds, but the lift and side ejection were much better at high speed. That’s where the mower cuts most like a quality gas model. That’s also the setting that should give you the best mulching if you add the optional plug. 

We had about an acre of yard to cut and the runtime was more than enough to cover that. We ran our runtime test in Standard mode with both the drive and blade speeds set at level 4. We were able to mow for right at an hour after borrowing some of our neighbor’s lawn. 

With the same settings and similar lawn conditions, you should be able to easily cover 1-1/2 acres. 2 acres isn’t an unreasonable assumption for properties where you’re making long runs between turns. Filling out the battery capacity with two more 10Ah packs, EGO claims you can cut up to 3 acres. 

As we roll into the Spring and Summer seasons when the grass grows fast and thick, we expect our runtime will drop a bit with the heavier workload, but we should still be able to get it done on the kitted batteries without a problem.  In our opinion, the design team clearly did their homework, and EGO’s first shot at a battery-powered zero turn is a home run.

Priced at $4999 with four 10Ah batteries, the overall value is excellent compared to other lithium-ion options at the same price point. And, yes, we do intend to compare this mower against other models as soon as they become available—so subscribe to our channel and get the alert when that video publishes. If you have any questions or feedback for us, feel free to leave them in the comments below and as always, thanks for watching!

Description

EGO’s Z6 Zero-turn Ride-on Mower is the world’s first platform-compatible ZTR, powered by any combination of EGO 56V ARC Lithium batteries. Included in this kit is the industries fastest multi-port charger which can charge up to 6 batteries at the same time.

Delivering the equivalent power of a 22 horsepower petrol engine, with none of the emissions, the Z6 covers up to 2.5 acres on a single charge with six 12Ah batteries. You can tailor the combination of batteries exactly to match the size of your lawn, and to how you prefer to cut your grass – unlike any other battery-powered ZTR on the market.

The industry’s fastest charger fully charges 4 x 10Ah in just 2 hours, 4x faster than any of the competition, while the four independent brushless motors deliver the power and performance of petrol to get the job done.It reaches a top speed of 8MPH and will cover up to 3 acres on a single charge with six 10Ah batteries.

The LCD screen is intuitive, allowing you to control the mower’s speed, mode, and cutting speed, plus you can see exactly how much charge you have left.

Choose between three driving modes. Standard mode which you can use for everyday tasks, Control which will protect your turf and is perfect for new zero-turn users, or Sport which is great for precision cuts around sharp turns. It also has Bluetooth connectivity so you can enable a remote key from your mobile, take full control of your mowing experience, monitor your battery, and download firmware updates to receive the latest features.

There are 10 cutting height settings which range between 2.5 – 20cm. These are easily adjustable with one hand by using the ergonomic handles. You’ve got the choice to mulch, bag or side-discharge whilst mowing, so not only can you dial in to the perfect cut, but you can also do what you require with the clippings. (Bagging kit sold separately).

The features don’t end there – 32 high-intensity LED lights illuminate your view when conditions get a little more challenging, you can stay hydrated whilst working with a helpful drink holder which is designed for large tumblers, plus a storage compartment including a slot for your mobile phone – which you can also charge whilst driving via the useful USB port.

SUPPLIED COMPLETE AS: Inc. 1600W charger and mulching plug (CHV1600E, AMP4200) Batteries not included. Minimum 15Ah required to function.

Ticket prices for the Trans-Siberian Railway also depend on the current ruble exchange rate.

Is the Trans-Siberian Railway expensive?

Before starting on your Trans-Siberian Railway adventure you naturally want to know what the entire trip will cost. Although this sounds like a simple question, it is pretty difficult to answer. The Trans-Siberian Railway price of travel depends on the following factors:

• Which travel class do I want to use? The price for a first class ticket is about three times the price of a 3rd class ticket
• Am I willing to buy the tickets myself and assume responsibility for the organisation of the trip?
• How many stopovers do I want to make? The more breaks, the higher the total price.
• What sort of accommodation do I want? Will it be a luxury hotel or will a hostel dormitory be sufficient?
• What tours and excursions would I like to go on?
• What is the current exchange rate for rubles?

Basically, everything from a luxury to a budget holiday is available. If you buy yourself a 3rd Class nonstop ticket at the counter, a few hundred Euros will cover the price. All you will experience is a week on the Trans-Siberian train and will see nothing of the cities on the way. There is, however, any amount of room for upward expansion. Everyone makes different choices about which aspects they are willing to spend money on. I personally prefer to save money on accommodation and railcar class, visit as many cities and do as many trips as possible. To enable better classification of your travel expenses I have contrasted two typical traveler types. In the third column you can calculate the total cost of your own journey on the Trans-Siberian Railway. Please keep in mind that these are only rough estimations and not exact prices.

The all-in costs seem fairly high at first. However, they cover everything and it is quite a long journey taking four weeks. Many people forget to consider that when looking at the list. We should also deduct the running costs for food and leisure at home. I think most visitors to this page will classify themselves somewhere between the two categories, that is around the € 2,000 – € 2,500 range. When comparing these prices with other travel packages, you get the impression that it is hardly worthwhile travelling individually on the Trans-Siberian Railway. Please keep in mind that most packages last no more than 14 days and you are herded like cattle through the most beautiful locations.

If you spend less time on the Trans-Siberian Railway you will, of course, pay less. I chose this particular travel length because I prefer not to do things by halves. If you fulfill your dream of travelling on the Trans-Siberian Railway, enjoy it and don’t rush things. But it’s up to you, of course. Try playing around with the form a bit to find the appropriate price for your trip.

Subway Strays: The Dogs of Moscow’s Metro

Despite the collapse of the Soviet Union, the stray dogs in Moscow have a surprisingly well-documented history which animal behaviorists have been paying close attention to for several decades. During the Soviet period in Russia the packs of wild (or stray) dogs in were regulated. Only the clever canines who learned to stay in isolation were able to survive. Usually, these dogs would remain on the outskirts of the city hunting in wild packs, as the living in the city was dangerous and food scarce.  After the fall of the Soviet Union quality of life in Russia began to slowly improve and with it more street vendors and food collecting in busy neighborhoods. This began to bring some the stray dogs out of the suburbs into the city.

Today, there are nearly 35,000 stray dogs that call Moscow home. Out of these 35,000 stray dogs there are about 500 that have taken to living underground. Out of these dogs, there are a few that have started thinking outside the box and inside the boxcar. They have begun the slow move underground to stay out of the cold (Russian winters reach an average of -5 degrees every day). Many of the Russian commuters embraced the dog’s underground migration by petting them or giving them food.

Though these claims may seem like the made up type of internet misinformation that we have learned to be skeptical of these days, it is actually sourced to a Russian biologist by the name of  Dr. Andrey Poyarkov , a highly regarded scientist in his field of study. As it turns out Poyarkov has been studying these dogs for the last thirty years and told news sources back in 2010 that he suspected a small fraction of these underground dogs had actually learned to use the subway in order to beg for food in bustling urban areas where food is more plentiful.

Andrei Neuronov , an animal behaviorist, says much like you train your dogs at home to respond to verbal commands like “sit” or “stay,” the Moscow metro dogs are using audio cues from the subway stops they have learned. The dogs memorize the names of the stops to navigate the subway systems in order to take them to heavily populated places during the day and get food.  Then, they return to their more secluded corners of the suburbs at night where they are less likely to be bothered by people.  Here is a story ABC did back in 2011, talking about this very thing.

Do you have any information on how to help these dogs?  Please share and comment below.
