MSRP, base build
Entry point to the 1GC range that replaced the GC1700 line in 2025, and the cheaper half of a two-model choice: 2 hp and 0.9 gpm less than the 1GC.25 beside it, for the same 661 lb hitch and 662 lb loader. Fixed ROPS here; the 1GC.23B folds it and adds a factory backhoe.
1.41 PTO hp per $1,000 of list price

On the price: The maker's own published starting figure for the base build. A dealer adds a loader, a deck and freight on top.
Lift figures are the maker's and are quoted at whichever point the maker chose; the about page explains why two loaders with the same number do not lift the same pallet.

Massey Ferguson
Iseki-built and noticeably more finished than most sub-compacts, with a drive-over deck and the tightest turning circle in the GC range. Massey has moved the badge to the 1GC line for 2026, so this one now survives only on the sub-compact comparison table.
Spec sheet & owner notesMassey Ferguson
Massey's 2025 renumbering retired the GC1700 line, and this is what took the GC1725M's place: the same 24.5 hp Iseki three-cylinder and two-range hydrostatic, now with push-button cruise control and a redesigned seat. The 1GC.25B adds a folding ROPS and a factory backhoe on the same frame.

Massey Ferguson
Replaces the single MF 1526 at the bottom of the new M Series, and it buys real capacity over the 1GC sub-compacts below it: 1,058 lb at the hitch against 661, and 852 lb at the loader against 662, for about the same engine. Air-conditioned cab is optional, which no 1GC offers.
