No field operation, but the part-by-part comparison with tape measure and tire-sidewall readings is more substantive than a typical walkaround. Best for shoppers actively cross-shopping these two models.
This is a Mahindra dealership channel, the presenter acknowledges the bias openly but is also motivated to sell the used Kubota on the lot, so expect a sales-leaning perspective that leans Mahindra.
The Mahindra 1626 lifts close to 1500 pounds while the Kubota B2650 lifts around 1000 pounds, roughly a 400 pound difference at full height.
The Mahindra bucket has beveled edges for visibility and easier release of wet material, while the Kubota B2650 bucket has square edges and is labeled for light material use.
The Mahindra 1626 measures about 11 inches wider than the Kubota B2650 from outside to outside of the rear tires, adding stability and lift capacity.
The Mahindra 1626 sensor is hidden under the molded seat and clips in easily, while the Kubota B2650 uses a metal flange and plastic actuating arm.
