Full figured 25hp Tractors

[ptsg]

I hope the rest of the tractor, like transmission, differential gears & bearings, PTO etc. can handle that kind of power increase in the long run...
I doubt the designers oversized all of it that much, after all Kubota is in business to make a profit.

Oh well, each to his own.

Cheers

The same model of the tractor is often offered in various HP variants. In this size of tractors, usually from 25HP up to 50HP, with the only changes being the engine/engine tune. This is the case for pretty much all manufacturers.

My tractor, at one point, was offered in 25HP, 30HP, 35HP, 40HP and 45HP, being the 2 later ones being a 3 cylinder 1.7L turbocharged engine. Now, they reduced it to 25HP, 35HP and 50Hp, while the later one gets a bigger and 4 cylinder 2.3L naturally aspired engine. Same transmission, same frame, same chassis, everything. I believe they only adjusted the gearing in the range gears for the 25HP variant.

The Kubota L-40 line ran from 32 to 57 horsepower, the Kioti CK-10/20 line goes from 25 to 40, the machines can handle it so long as you're reasonably responsible.

Sounds good!

Agreed.

And the Kubota Standard L Series goes from 25-39 with a virtually identical PTO train. These tractors without a doubt can handle the power assuming no abuse, proper maintenance and some EGT monitoring due diligence.

There are nearly one hundred Turbocharged Kubota L2501’s operating now and have combined for thousands of hours logged without incident and factory reliability.

What makes/models are in that bigger/heavier/more capabable then a sub compact, and still in the cheap, small range. I assume the 25hp emissions stuff is the reason for a significant price jump right at that border line. With an actually decent lifting capacity, decent travel speed, ect. It seems like the MF GC series; Kubota BX, JD 1025; whatever are all giving up a lot of weight, lifting, ground clearance and other capabilities.

Last time I checked, when I bought my new 2021 LS MT2-25S with loader for $15,500 with the dealer taking 2 nice tractors in trade and delivering free from 250 miles away, 26 HP is the break point for no juice or regen required.

I was checking that subject a couple of days ago and I think I saw that in 2028 the regs might include the less than 26 HP.

The LS I mentioned is well worth your time if you are looking for amenities in a compact tractor. I'm 6'5 and at the time was at 235# and I fit very comfortably in that LS compact. Have had zero problems with it other than initially an intermittent rear tail light assembly that I ordered a new one, received it in short order, put the old one in the box and sent it back to the dealer, all cost free. No other problems and I use it every day around the place....my second set of hands.
