This is a standardized scenario index, not a claim that every mower actually costs this amount to maintain. Purchase prices come from our observed-price dataset. Consumables, electricity, maintenance reserve and battery reserve are comparison assumptions applied equally to every model. Use the calculator to replace them with your own numbers.

Low-use scenario
$25/yr consumables + $10/yr electricity + $25/yr maintenance reserve + $0 battery reserve over five years.
Base scenario
$45/yr consumables + $20/yr electricity + $75/yr maintenance reserve + $250 battery reserve over five years.
Higher-cost scenario
$90/yr consumables + $40/yr electricity + $150/yr maintenance reserve + $500 battery reserve over five years.
Why we use standardized assumptions
Brand-specific lifetime repair costs are difficult to compare credibly because manufacturers publish different parts catalogs, battery terms, labor policies and service pathways. Applying one transparent scenario to every mower isolates the effect of purchase price while still forcing the buyer to account for recurring ownership costs.
What is not included
The scenarios exclude financing, taxes, shipping, professional installation, boundary-wire installation, antenna mounting, cellular subscriptions, major accident damage, theft, opportunity cost and resale value. Those can matter substantially for an individual purchase and should be added in the calculator where relevant.
Battery reserve is not a prediction
The battery line is a five-year reserve, not a statement that every battery will fail or require replacement within five years. Battery life depends on chemistry, cycle count, heat, storage, charging behavior, mower workload and manufacturer design. Some owners may spend nothing; others may replace a pack earlier.
Purchase price still dominates
With identical operating assumptions applied across models, purchase-price differences remain the largest driver of modeled five-year cost. That makes acreage fit especially important: buying far more mower than the property requires can overwhelm small differences in electricity or blade spending.
Use this with the support index
Total cost is not only the amount spent. Parts availability and repair infrastructure determine whether the mower can be returned to service economically. Pair this page with our Warranty & Parts Support Index before treating a low modeled cost as the final verdict.
