I am pretty pumped about these. Faster travel speed than the GC series, a cab which isn't Curtis, and a niche which really had been owned by Kubota, Deere and Kioti from what I could tell.

The tight turning radius makes putting a mower deck on it more feasible. Other than missing a rear wiper, it seems like a pretty premium option. Smaller than the 1835M as well.
And no DPF or regens!! That's why I only buy new tractors in this size class and old ones for anything bigger.

Wonder why they leave the lifting eyes welded on the top corners of the cab?

Hopefully they are reasonably priced here in Canada. A bare Kubota LX2620 with cab and NO loader is $47,000 at my dealer.

I have seen the add for this 1M in video at Vahrenberg and it was listed at $29,000 USD

My dealer has Massey's and they are really nice, Iseki engines in most of the compact lines. I kind of want a 4707:geek:

I wanted a 4707 too, but the prices here are scary. Over $100,000

Finally! A worthy non DPF option to the Kubota LX2620 factory cab! I really like it.
No steering brakes, but the hydrostat is super quiet.
Thanks for finding these Will!



This new M-F 1M. 25 cab is the replacement for the M- F 1526 it has the same displacement, & dive train as the 1526 with the Iseki 3 cylinder the cab on these are now being factory built. This new model is a well thought out design using the same proven engine, & drive train as the M-F 1526. You can also order it with a mid mount PTO..

That is a neat little tractor. Reminds me of a JD 2520 with cab and A/C which I would love.

It's good to see them keep a proven drivetrain and improve ergonomics, this seems like an appealing combination.

I apologize if this is considered too old of a thread to revive. I was in the market for a sub-compact/compact tractor a few years ago, but ended up shifting my attention to a whole-home renovation instead. Now, I'm back on the hunt for a tractor and I've been watching both MF and JD pretty closely over the last couple months. I've personally been considering an MF 1825E or a JD 3025E.

I should note my research has been specifically focused on US-market models.

I was happy to stumble upon this thread mentioning new MF models, but my excitement faded when I realized the "new" MF 1E.25 appears to just be a slightly revised 1825E. The only notable differences I can find are the hydrostatic pedal configuration and possibly the addition of a standard/optional mid-PTO on the 1E.25 -- not positive on that though. I appreciate the former, but I do not desire the latter if my purchase ends up being a dedicated "woods" tractor. Other than that, the 1825E and 1E.25 appear to be pretty visually identical.

The 1526, on the other hand, is dimensionally smaller than the 2024 1825E/2025 1E.25. I believe the 1526 comes in around 1800-2000 pounds while the 1825E/1E.25 are 2500+ pounds. My numbers may be off a little, but I also believe the 1526 has a roughly 35" tall rear tire while the 1825E/1E.25 has a roughly 40" tall rear tire.

I'm in a predicament. I'm 80% on purchasing something to be used almost exclusively in the woods, with occasional driveway maintenance, and would prefer it to not have a mid-PTO. If that's the way I go, I need to either find a 2024 1825E or go for the JD 3025E. However, I'm 20% on purchasing a Swiss Army knife tractor that is small enough to mow the yard, but heavy enough to occasionally perform questionable tasks around the property (e.g. skidding logs and moving earth). If I go that route, I believe the 1526, in all its long-in-the-tooth glory, is the way to go.
