Kioti has upped the ante, calling its new 130-horsepower HX1302 and 140-horsepower HX1402 its most powerful utility tractors yet.
The new HX Series tractors deliver up to 35 more horsepower than previous models for heavy-duty applications including bailing, tilling, cultivating, excavating and grading. Both come equipped with a transmission featuring a semi power-shift with power shuttle, to provide smooth and efficient power delivery with less operator fatigue, the company says.
The closed-center hydraulic system delivers 44 gallons per minute of flow for handling heavy loads and powering demanding implements. The tractors have an 8,492-pound maximum lift capacity and a Category II three-point hitch.
Joel Hicks, product line manager for tractors at Kioti, called the HX1302 and HX1402 a “significant advancement in stability, power and versatility.”
The tractors can reach speeds up to 25 mph, while wet multi-disc brakes provide stopping power. A power boost system unlocks an extra 9% in horsepower and torque when more power is needed from the four-cylinder water-cooled Kioti diesel engine. The rear PTO, with 540/540E/1,000 rpm speeds, can handle a variety of tasks.
The models’ heavier base, heavy-duty front axle, outboard planetary drives and a limited-slip differential are designed to enhance stability and control on challenging terrain, according to Kioti.
Kioti says it designed the spacious five-pillar cab for panoramic visibility. The operator’s station includes a premium air suspension seat with adjustable fore/aft, swivel, and heated lower cushion, a standard instructor seat and adjustable controls. The illuminated digital instrument panel displays vehicle status, warnings and real-time alerts from the Kioti Connect TMS system.
Additional models in the HX Series lineup include the 90-horsepower HX9010C and 115-horsepower HX1151, which were introduced in 2023.
