Cub Cadet 2146

Last Updated: September 2024

Overview

The Cub Cadet 2146 is a compact lawn and garden tractor built from 2000 to 2001. It's perfect for homeowners with medium-sized yards. This tractor has a 2WD system and manual steering, making it easy to maneuver around obstacles. It uses a smooth hydrostatic transmission, which lets you change speed without stopping.

Under the hood, the 2146 has a single-cylinder Linamar ZX390 gasoline engine. The engine is air-cooled and naturally aspirated, producing 13.9 hp at 3600 rpm. While the engine size is below average, its high rpm rating makes it suitable for lawn care tasks. The tractor comes with a mid-mount 38-inch mower deck that has two blades and manual lift. It also has an 8.5-liter fuel tank, so you can work for a while without refueling. At 683 pounds, it's a bit heavier than some lawn tractors, which helps with stability during use.
