Kubota ME5700 vs Kubota MZ655

Verdict: Kubota ME5700 vs Kubota MZ655

The Kubota ME5700 and the Kubota MZ655 are both tractors — here is how they stack up on the figures that matter. Kubota MZ655 leads on rated power with 64 hp against 63 hp. Kubota MZ655 is the lighter machine (2,550 kg vs 5,071 kg), which helps on soft ground and transport, while the heavier model carries more ballast for traction-limited draft work.
