A highlighted cell wins its row on the rule named above the table: more power, lift, capacity or flow, or a lower price. A lift row is left unwon whenever the two makers measured in different places, or where either of them did not say — a figure quoted at the pivot pin and one quoted 500 mm ahead of it describe the same loader and differ by roughly a third, so ranking them against each other would invent a result. Prices are typical list and move with dealer packages.
From owner discussion and long-term write-ups
What owners of each one say
Kioti NS6010
What they like
- 48.3 PTO hp is 84 percent of gross, which is what a Cat 2 implement actually sees and among the highest conversions Kioti publishes below 60 hp
- Cat 2 3-point with draft control at 2,940 lb takes implements a Cat 1 hitch cannot
- Turbocharged 1,826 cc making 57.7 hp keeps the tractor at 4,027 lb, light for its output in this class
- 16.5 gpm and a 2,621 lb loader at the pivot pin, unchanged from the NS5310 below it
- Cab is a published $48,543 configuration rather than an unpriced special order
- 72-month powertrain coverage with unlimited hours plus 24 months bumper-to-bumper with no deductible
What they complain about
- The hydrostatic version costs $2,787 more and gives up PTO power, so the two versions are genuinely different tractors rather than a preference
- 13.2 gal of fuel at 57.7 hp is a short working window - the RX6620 above it carries 22.5 gal
- 2,621 lb of loader at the pin is less than the premium NX line's 2,761 lb on a tractor that costs about the same
- The cab adds $8,140, and there is no mid-point canopy option published
- No aftertreatment detail on the page at this hp point
Kioti NX6010
What they like
- 48.3 PTO hp from a hydrostatic drive is unusually little loss for the type, and matches what Kioti claims for the shuttle-drive NS6010
- 17.9 gpm is the highest flow of any Kioti under 60 hp, 1.4 gpm above the rest of the NX line
- Three-range hydrostatic on a 4,198 lb frame is the combination for repeated loader cycles, where a shuttle costs a clutch pedal every time
- 3,177 lb hitch and 2,761 lb loader at the pivot pin, the largest figures in Kioti's sub-60 hp range
- 72 months of powertrain coverage with no hour limit and 24 months bumper-to-bumper with no deductible
- 14.8 gal of fuel, matched to a machine expected to work all day
What they complain about
- $40,839 is more than Kioti's 66 hp RX6620P, which has a 3,594 lb hitch and a 3,384 lb loader - the NX tops out above the price of the series that replaces it
- Hydrostatic only, so there is no shuttle version at this hp point for field work
- 4,198 lb is 11 lb lighter than the 55 hp NX5510, so the top model brings no extra ballast
- The cab adds $8,641 with no mid-priced canopy option published
- Neither the aftertreatment nor cruise control is published, and both matter on a machine bought for long hydrostatic sessions
