Kubota L4610 vs Kubota L4701

Verdict: Kubota L4610 vs Kubota L4701

The Kubota L4610 and the Kubota L4701 are both tractors — here is how they stack up on the figures that matter. Kubota L4610 leads on rated power with 48 hp against 47 hp. Kubota L4610 is the lighter machine (3,180 kg vs 3,219 kg), which helps on soft ground and transport, while the heavier model carries more ballast for traction-limited draft work.
