Dixie Chopper Unveils Electric Zero-Turn Concept Mower, New ‘SS’ Models

Dixie Chopper unveiled a new electric zero-turn concept mower at the recent GIE+Expo, as well as two new “SS” models for the 2022 model year and more.

The electric concept mower, currently named the Raven, is a commercial-duty 58-volt design utilizing Smartec components for the deck motors, drive motors, controllers and battery packs. The Dixie Chopper staff used the show as an opportunity for feedback from attendees on the appearance and features of the concept mower, while listening to what the customers interested in electric zero-turn mowers are mostly concerned with when purchasing new equipment such as the Raven.
