Kioti CK2610 vs CK2620?

[Rdrcr]

Hey folks I’m trying to find out what the differences there are between the CK2610 and the CK2620 tractors. I know there are some cosmetic differences between the two versions but, my main area of focus is under the hood. Has there been any changes to the engine or have any engine components moved to alternate locations? I haven’t yet had the opportunity to visit a dealer and I’m hoping you guys can give me a jump start on my search.

Any reason I would choose one over the other?

I prefer to buy pre-owned so I’m leaning CK2610.

Thanks,

Mike

And, how does the Bobcat CT2025 compare to the CK2610/CK2620? Basically the same tractor(different color & loader), correct?

The new Ck2620 is about $1,500 more than the CK2610 was new, at the same time.

According to the Kioti website, it appears a mid PTO is available on the CK2620. To the best of my knowledge, that was never available on the 2610. I also believe it is a different loader?

So, looking around, Very briefly, a CK2620 starts right around $22,500-24,000. You should be able to find a CK2610 for sub $18,500 with Very low hours/years. If you are a cash buyer, that might be good. If you need to get a used equipment loan, vs a possibly subsidized Kioti new loan, you could find the payments on the "cheaper" machine are more per month, for the same term as a new one.

Edit: Google search does imply that a mid PTO was available on 2610 as well?

Thank you for your reply.

My online searches haven’t indicated any changes aside from cosmetic between the CK2610 and CK2620 (excluding mid-PTO option).

Sounds like any of the three options would work for my purposes.

I’ll be purchasing in cash.

@Rdrcr there is a pretty Long thread that lead upto my purchase of my Ck2610, and my thoughts afterwards. "Full figured 25hp tractor" or something like that.

Mechanically there is no difference between the machines; I wish I would have seen this thread earlier.

Are you looking to turbo this machine?

That’s what I thought but, haven’t had my hands under the hood of either version yet.

Yes! My intention is to Turbocharge the tractor. We’ve been having a difficult time finding a donor tractor locally so, I’m just gonna buy one. I’m hoping to find a reasonably priced pre-owned CK2610, but if I’m forced to, I’ll consider a new CK2620 or Bobcat CT2025.
