Kubota M5N-111 vs Kubota M6-101

Verdict: Kubota M5N-111 vs Kubota M6-101

The Kubota M5N-111 and the Kubota M6-101 are both tractors — here is how they stack up on the figures that matter. Kubota M5N-111 leads on rated power with 106 hp against 105 hp. Kubota M6-101 is the lighter machine (4,355 kg vs 5,357 kg), which helps on soft ground and transport, while the heavier model carries more ballast for traction-limited draft work. Kubota M6-101 holds more fuel (190.0 L vs 76.1 L) for longer stints between fills. Kubota M5N-111 is the newer design (2018 vs 2015). In short: choose the Kubota M5N-111 for outright pulling power, or the Kubota M6-101 if a tighter budget and lighter footprint matter more. Compare the full spec tables below before booking a demo.
