Kioti NS4710
The Kioti NS4710 is a 45 HP compact utility tractor built around Daedong's turbocharged 1.8L CRDI diesel, slotting between Kioti's CK and DK lines. It targets small farms and heavy loader users who want near-premium specs for thousands less than the equivalent Kubota or Deere.
Specifications
Features
Pros
- ✓16.5 GPM total hydraulic flow is class-leading - loader and grapple work feels noticeably faster and smoother than a Kubota L3901 or Deere 3-series
- ✓At 4,027 lbs bare it outweighs comparable Kubota L-series tractors by close to half a ton, so it stays planted with a heavy bucket instead of getting tippy
- ✓Typically prices $4,000-8,000 under a comparably equipped Kubota MX5400 or Deere 4044M, which is why owners on TractorByNet call it the value king of the class
- ✓The KL5520 loader lifts 2,105 lbs at the pin and takes skid-steer quick-attach implements, so you're not locked into proprietary attachments
- ✓Daedong has built diesel engines for decades (and supplied other tractor brands), so the powerplant is proven despite the lesser-known badge
- ✓Independent PTO, tilt steering, and cruise control come standard - features that are option-sheet upcharges on green and orange tractors
- ✓6-year powertrain warranty backs it up longer than Mahindra's and matches Kubota's coverage
- ✓The factory cab version is one of the cheapest true climate-controlled cab tractors you can buy in the 45 HP class
Cons
- ✗Kioti's dealer network is far thinner than Deere or Kubota - if you're not near a good dealer, parts can take days instead of hours
- ✗Resale value trails Kubota and Deere noticeably, so you give back some of the purchase savings when you sell
- ✗The Tier 4 DPF needs regen cycles, and owners who do lots of low-RPM idle work find the regens frequent and annoying
- ✗The HST saps a few horsepower versus the gear version, and some owners say it feels weaker than the rated 36.6 PTO HP suggests
- ✗Fit and finish - paint quality, plastics, and seat - is a notch below Kubota, which owners notice even if it doesn't affect function
- ✗At over 4,000 lbs it will rut a soft lawn badly, so it's the wrong machine if half your work is on turf
- ✗The NS line sits confusingly between Kioti's own CK and DK series, and a similarly priced DK4520 has a heavier-duty frame
- ✗Loader valve and joystick feel is notchier and less refined than Kubota's, a common gripe in side-by-side comparisons
