Kubota M100A vs Kubota M9960

Verdict: Kubota M100A vs Kubota M9960

The Kubota M100A and the Kubota M9960 are both tractors — here is how they stack up on the figures that matter. Kubota M9960 leads on rated power with 100 hp against 99 hp. Kubota M100A is the lighter machine (3,590 kg vs 5,535 kg), which helps on soft ground and transport, while the heavier model carries more ballast for traction-limited draft work. Kubota M100A holds more fuel (190.0 L vs 90.1 L) for longer stints between fills. Kubota M9960 is the newer design (2013 vs 2009). In short: choose the Kubota M9960 for outright pulling power, or the Kubota M100A if a tighter budget and lighter footprint matter more. Compare the full spec tables below before booking a demo.
