ZG Series Kubota-Engine Gas Zero-Turn
The ZG series pairs Kubota's own gas engines with commercial-grade zero-turn platforms. While most gas zero-turns use Kawasaki or Briggs engines, the ZG runs Kubota-built gasoline engines — giving you Kubota's legendary reliability in a gas-powered package with strong torque, excellent fuel economy, and Kubota dealer support.
Kubota-Built Gasoline Engines
The ZG is unique in the zero-turn market — it uses Kubota's own gasoline engines rather than sourcing from third-party manufacturers. Kubota's gas engines are built to the same durability standards as their legendary diesels, with features like cast-iron cylinder sleeves and heavy-duty internal components.
- •Kubota WG-series gasoline engines — 21.5 to 27 HP
- •Cast-iron cylinder sleeves for commercial-grade durability
- •Electronic ignition for reliable starting in all conditions
- •Single-source Kubota dealer support for engine and machine
Commercial Hydro-Gear Transmissions
ZG models use Hydro-Gear ZT-3400 or ZT-5400 commercial transmissions depending on the model, delivering the same proven hydraulic drive found in the Z400 and Z700 lines. This gives you commercial-grade ground speed and hill performance.
- •Hydro-Gear ZT-3400 (ZG222) or ZT-5400 (ZG227/ZG327) transmissions
- •Ground speeds up to 9.9 mph
- •Commercial-duty construction for extended service life
- •Smooth, responsive lap bar control
Professional Fabricated Decks
ZG decks are fabricated from heavy-gauge welded steel with commercial spindle assemblies, matching the build quality of the Z700 line. Available in 48 to 60-inch widths, these decks deliver a clean, consistent cut across large properties.
- •48-inch (ZG222), 54-inch (ZG227), or 60-inch (ZG327) deck options
