Does anyone know if/when Kioti will manufacture/market skid steers and/or excavators?

Don't know but they now have Z turn mowers.

Haven't heard anything if they did it would likely be a re-branded machine I would think. That's what most manufacturer's do these days. Or if its a Chinese manufacturer they just rip off somebody else's design. Lol

My dealer said that the parent company makes excavators in Korea and expects that they will begin importing them within a year or two.

Don’t know about skids.

They have crates of ztr’s stacked four or five high, just unloaded

Any idea on what size mini-excavator they'll be marketting? I'd like something like a Kubota KX-080.

I rented a Kubota KX033 last fall w/ 36" ditch clean out bucket. Worked great! I think a KX040 would do me just fine but wondering if Kioti might have something coming on the production line. I'm very happy with my 2010 CK35 HST - just turned 1,000 hrs.! The backhoe is pretty limited for my irrigation work. I will take the Kioti tractor over the Kubota tractor but might have to settle for a Kubota excavator ??? IF I can ever get one - LOL!

See if you cannot find a Yanmar mini-ex in your area.

A desirable feature Kubota has is the 6-way blade. I don't know ANY others that have a 6-way. Most I think are just up/down. Thanks for the info on Doosan, I didn't know they are Kioti parent company.
