Read articles →This is a spec-comparison talk-through rather than a hands-on demo of either tractor: no loader lifting, no digging, no walkaround footage. It covers horsepower, transmission options (hydrostatic vs gear-driven, shuttle shift with independent PTO), hydraulic pump flow rates (7.1 vs 5.1 GPM) and loader lift capacity, standard features like tilt steering and floor mats, and Mahindra's seven-year powertrain warranty. Best for shoppers wanting quick spec differences before visiting a dealer.
Posted by a Mahindra dealership channel (Mahindra of KenTenn Hunter), so the comparison favors the Mahindra 1526.
The Mahindra 1526 has a larger hydraulic pump at 7.1 gallons per minute versus roughly 5.1 GPM on the Kubota L2501, letting it lift 27% more with the front bucket loader.
The Kubota L2501 has a gear-driven option while the Mahindra 1526 has a shuttle shift option, and both have hydrostatic transmissions with low, medium, and high gears.
The Mahindra 1526 comes with a seven-year powertrain warranty, which the video states no other competitor matches at this point.
Standard features include a twig attached front bucket that swaps for skid steer attachments, four or six tires, rubber floor mats, cruise control, and tilt steering.
