dealer list, not MSRP
Cheapest tractor Yanmar sells in the US, and the least expensive way into its ten-year powertrain warranty. At 21.5 hp with an 825 lb loader it lines up against a 1023E and a BX1880, with a thinner dealer network behind it.

On the price: This maker publishes no price, so the figure comes from dealer listings. Regional dealers price the same machine differently.
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.

Yanmar
Sits between the SA223 and SA425 on price while running the same 23.9 hp 3TNV80F diesel as the dearer SA425, so what the badge buys over the SA223 is horsepower rather than a different machine. Full-frame chassis, dual-range hydrostatic, 1,200 lb loader.

Yanmar
Nearly 24 hp carrying a 1,200 lb loader at the pivot pin, comfortably above what a BX2380 or 1025R manages, on a chassis Yanmar builds under its own badge rather than someone else's. The ten-year powertrain warranty is the closer.

Yanmar
Yanmar's gear-drive YM2 platform starts here, swapping the hydrostatic pedals of the SA line for an 8x8 synchronized reverser and adding 300 lb of loader lift. At 24.4 hp it stays under the emissions threshold that forces a particulate filter.
