Kubota Tractor Corporation | Grapevine, Texas
GRAPEVINE, Texas, Oct. 1, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Kubota Tractor Corporation introduces the new Grand L70 Series, the further evolution of its flagship compact tractor. Engineered for modern residential and commercial operators, the Grand L70 Series includes three model options (premium, deluxe and cold-weather) and levels up the operator experience with advanced technologies such as a multi-function loader joystick and Intelligent Hydrostatic Transmission (iHST).
An all-new Kubota ProCab delivers comfort and productivity year-round, while Kubota’s hallmark quality, durability and reliability reinforce its position as the No. 1 selling compact tractor in the U.S.*
"The Grand L70 Series is more than just a new tractor—it's an innovative leap forward in elevating the operator experience by seamlessly integrating technology," said Matthew Walker, Kubota senior product operations manager, compact and utility tractors. "Kubota has a long history of listening to customer feedback and innovating machines that not only meet the demands of modern small ranch and farm owners and professionals alike but also provide an operator experience that goes far beyond expectations. From loader work to snow removal, the Grand L70 is ready to outperform every challenge."
Intelligent Tractor Technology
The Grand L70 is tech-forward with a suite of premium features led by its new iHST and digital display and controls. Kubota’s advanced three-range Intelligent Hydrostatic Transmission (iHST) allows the operator to tailor tractor performance to the job at hand, with adjustable pedal sensitivity and an auto-throttle advance function.
The tractor features a hydro-dual speed system that lets operators switch between high and low within each range (low, medium and high) for a total of six speed ranges. Pre-programmed yet customizable drive modes include road, snow, loader, and cutter, helping operators match performance to specific tasks and conditions.
Other tech advancements include the K-Command Display, a vibrant, easy-to-navigate color screen with Bluetooth connectivity and hands-free calling. It provides quick access to customizable tractor settings and performance data. A digital stall guard helps protect the engine and power take-off (PTO) from stalling by sensing engine load and making real-time adjustments to keep productivity high, whether cutting grass or pushing dirt.
A multi-function loader joystick offers up to nine pre-programmed functions, including cruise control, drive mode selection and iHST settings at the operator’s fingertips—putting precision control directly in the seat.
An Elevated Operator Experience with Kubota's New ProCab
The Kubota Grand L70 is available in three model options: deluxe, premium and cold-weather. Both the deluxe and premium models are available with an open-air ROPS (roll over protective structure) or a factory-installed Kubota ProCab for all-season operation.
The new Kubota ProCab four-post design with rounded glass provides clear, commanding sightlines for the operator, while maintaining a climate-controlled and productive environment with features such as remote start, heated glass, rear wiper, rear and side defrosters. The ProCab creates a quiet, comfortable workspace with increased airflow and available heated swivel seat options for long days on the job.
Leveled-Up Power and Performance
The Grand L70 is powered by a Kubota diesel engine and offers horsepower options ranging from 37 to 60 hp, enabling operators to tackle a wide variety of jobs with confidence and efficiency. The tractor utilizes Kubota’s Common-Rail System (CRS) with electronically controlled fuel injection for smooth, efficient operation.
Both models are available in 3- or 4-cylinder configurations. The deluxe model features a naturally aspirated engine, while the premium model steps up to a turbo-charged configuration, exceeding expectations for power in the compact tractor segment.
Engineered for the Modern Tractor Operator
For residential users, the Grand L70 brings new levels of comfort and customization to loader work and land management. The newly introduced multi-function loader joystick allows operators to set cruise control, adjust drive modes, and fine-tune transmission settings—all while completing loader tasks such as moving brush or stacking hay bales.
An optional mechanical self-leveling loader further enhances productivity for material handling and stacking. A performance-matched backhoe (BH92A) and three performance-matched loaders (LA806, LA1056, LM1056) are available to pair with the Grand L70, offering a loader lift capacity of up to 3,029 pounds, more than 9 feet of digging depth and rapid attach/detach systems.
With the new K-Command Display screen featuring jog dial navigation and the multi-functional loader joystick, operability is designed to be intuitive, making it easy for operators to understand, navigate and tackle daily tasks.

The new Grand L70 will be available at Kubota dealerships in the first quarter of 2026. For more information or to find an authorized Kubota dealer, visit www.KubotaUSA.com.
