What is the highest HP Kubota farm tractor made with a Hydro Trans ?

[Brown Dog]

What current model # is the biggest Horsepower farm tractor that Kubota makes with hydrostatic trans option ?

I’d love to have a new M5-111 open station Farm Tractor with a E-Hydro Trans Option.

I use to have a JD 4720 66hp OS with Hydro trans & I fluid filled all 4 tires but it still wasn’t heavy enough or big enough frame size for my application.

MX6000 I think.

I was afraid of that

If you need hydrostatic "like" above 60 HP you may have to go to a CVT transmission.

There was another thread going that said the Fendt 200 series was the smallest with CVT, you had to go 150 HP or so to get it otherwise.

I have Kubota with Hydraulic Shuttle and it works well, no clutching needed, same idea as M5-111

OP: good title question. another related question may be why Kubota M series tractors do not offer hst in their higher HP Utility models... i'll let someone else explain, but i sure do like my manual/ hyd shuttle model, best of both worlds. thankfully my knees are not a problem for shifting. regards

also maybe explain what your tasks are with your hst preference

May I ask, what is your application that you want an M size tractor, weighing x? amount need to be used for??

I currently have two JD 5115M open stations & all Four R4 tires 90% fluid filled with 32spd AND creep option which adds 16 speeds under 1mph.
I certainly dont need all 48 speeds but I do need every tenth of a mph UNDER 1mph.

These trans works fantastic in my Commercial Poultry house litter prep work.

Kubota creep option in a 12spd will only get down to .2mph working at 1500rpm & has a pretty big gap between gears.

The Hydro trans will go any speed you need under 1mph.

M6000 isn’t heavy enough tractor imo.

still interested in your specific applications requiring heavy duty hst vs gear (or manual)

JD Power Reverser trans works great as long as u have 8 or 10 gears under 1mph for Poultry Litter Prep aka caking in poultry houses.

Needing a low profile tractor certainly limits what will work for you for sure. Not sure if any CVT tractors built would even fit that.

Sounds like Kubota gear drive doesn't have your application in mind.
