57.7 hp squeezed out of the same 111 cu in turbo Daedong three-cylinder that powers the whole 4000 platform, and hydrostatic only - there is no gear option at the top of the range. $41,048 open station, $49,846 for the CT4558 cab.

Bobcat
Bobcat's 5000 platform starts here, where the enclosed cab is standard rather than an $11,000 option and the loader jumps to 2,346 lb at max height. 45 hp is the least power offered here, which is why it is also the cheapest cab tractor Bobcat lists at $46,887.

Bobcat
The 4000 platform is where Bobcat's tractors finally get a turbocharger, 16.5 gpm of hydraulics and a 2,716 lb hitch - a real jump in capability rather than another engine swap into the same frame. Base hydrostatic build starts at $34,400.

Bobcat
50.3 hp and 45.6 PTO hp for a published $32,608 - less than the 44.9 hp CT4045 costs, because this one is sold with the 8x8 synchro shuttle as its base build rather than a hydrostatic. It is the most PTO power per dollar Bobcat lists.
