Read articles →A dealership floor walkthrough comparing three physical machines side by side: the Kubota B2601, Kioti CX2510, and Kioti CK2620. The salesman covers lift capacity, weight differences (cast vs. aluminum rear ends), hydraulic flow, transmission options, three-point hitch design, seat quality, and ballast needs. Rough price ranges are offered but not guaranteed. Most useful for shoppers deciding between a compact Kubota and same-tier Kioti alternatives before visiting a dealer.
A dealership channel (Orchard Hill Farm Equipment), so the walkthrough has a sales orientation and the Kioti models are presented as the house brand.
The CX2510 picks up around 1,100 pounds full lift at full height, while the B series is a bigger tractor in dimensions but lighter underneath due to its aluminum rear end versus the CX2510's cast steel rear end.
The CK2620 lifts above 1,800 pounds, much more than the CX2510, and is physically larger, similar in size to a standard L series Kubota rather than a B series.
Yes, the B series definitely needs ballast or counterweight since it is lighter underneath despite being bigger in dimensions, and the CX2510 still benefits from ballast too for stability.
The CK2620 is priced just a hair above twenty thousand and offers the highest lift capacity, making it the biggest bang for the buck and Kioti's best seller.
