From the floor of its 2014 Dealer Meeting in Nashville, Kubota Tractor Corporation introduced its M7-Series tractor line, three new mid-range tractors in the 130 to 170 horsepower range. This is the largest horsepower offering for Kubota in its tractor line-up to date.

“With the Kubota M7, we’ve set in motion a strategy for full-scale entry into new markets, setting our sights on commercial livestock and row-crop production customers, and readying Kubota to compete with other big players in the field,” said Todd Stucke, Kubota vice president, agriculture and turf division. “The M7’s ease of operation, technological advances and overall comfort factor will make it a top choice for hay producers as well.”

The introduction of the M7-Series, which will be made available to customers in select markets by the second half of 2015, was one of several key product announcements made at the Kubota Dealer Meeting, where nearly 4,000 dealers and staff from across North America are expected this week.

“Kubota has established a well-respected name for itself in the industry over the last four decades. As we move in to a new era for the company, we continue to build on the strength of the Kubota brand and grow our business into new segments,” said Mr. Masato Yoshikawa, president and CEO, Kubota Tractor Corporation. “Kubota products will serve more customer segments, across more markets than ever before. And as we offer customers more choices, we also remain committed to supporting our dealers so that they may provide their customers with the rewarding experiences Kubota is known for delivering.”
