The three best reasons to own an Exmark® Metro®: Cut. Quality. Price.
When shopping for a fixed-deck, gear-drive mower, you should have no trouble finding one or two of the three attributes listed above. But to get all three in a single machine, you’re looking at a Metro. Its five-inch-deep deck delivers the sought-after Exmark cut. From its rugged Kawasaki® V-Twin engine to the patented Enhanced Control System (ECS) on 36- and 48-inch models, the Metro delivers the quality and features you’re looking for. All at a price that puts it within reach of virtually any budget.
Features
All
Simple drive belt maintenance: Yet another reason to own a Metro. Drive belts can be changed quickly and easily—no tools required.
Enhanced Control System: Our patented ECS puts the operator’s hands in a natural, neutral position to help reduce fatigue. Or, you can choose traditional pistol-grip controls.
All-round performance: The Metro delivers excellent performance with speeds up to 6.2 mph and reverse assist. High-clearance, well-balanced decks also make curb climbing and trailering easy.
