Well, not something you would take on the road, but I'm glad to see a
major manufacturer, John Deere, producing an electric riding lawn mower.
The small gas engines are the worst polluters and the noise in the
neighborhoods has got to go, too.

...
The electric mower features a 3.2 kWh (3.56 kWh maximum) sealed
lithium-ion battery capable of mowing up to two acres per charge.
With a 42-inch Accel Deep Deck and two adjustable mowers, the
zero-emission EV delivers the same productivity and cut quality as its
gas-powered counterparts, with added benefits. The electric transaxle
has a seven mph maximum forward speed, three different modes which can
be controlled from a large LCD screen, and zero turn capabilities for
the perfect lines each time.
