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 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
Kioti HX9010
What they like
- 8,002 lb at the 3-point is more than twice the RX6620's rating and puts it in the class of implements that need a genuine utility tractor
- The KL1155 loader lifts 4,216 lb at the pivot pin to 150.6 in, which reaches over the side of a grain trailer
- 32 gpm of pump flow is nearly double the RX line's, so a loader and a rear hydraulic implement can both work without starving
- 47.6 gal of fuel supports a full working day with a loader and no refuelling stop
- 3,833 cc across four cylinders rather than a stretched small block, with a turbo and an intercooler
- The cab is standard equipment, not a $8,000-plus option as it is on the NX and NS models
- 10,230 lb of weight is the traction that 70 PTO hp actually needs to pull tillage
What they complain about
- 70 PTO hp from 90 gross is a 22 percent loss, weak for this class - the 73 hp RX7320 delivers 63 at the PTO for less than half the price
- 48-month powertrain coverage rather than Kioti's 72-month term, on its most expensive tractor
- $77,728 is a different market from the rest of the Kioti lineup and competes with established cab tractors where dealer support carries more weight
- 10,230 lb rules out lawn, orchard and soft-ground work entirely
- The 8,002 lb hitch figure comes with no measuring point, which matters more at this capacity than anywhere else in the range
