For Australian market the new version HX1302 (130hp) n HX1402 (140hp) includes loader, 8 speed powershift 32x32, 1402 has cab suspension, hydraulic top link n Easy stop. Both LED light package n multi function armrest, HX is advertised for Autumn/Winter sale. My uncle operated 80hp Kioti few years ago which me n my brother got chance to drive, it had horsepower but it was light tractor compare to bigger brands in same hp. Reliability was issue which uncle traded in for McCormick MC135 with Perkins six. Over years i reckon Kioti has got better, stìĺl light frame tractor with great value as Deutz Fahr is little more expensive with bit of lower hp but similar features n similar price, alot of Aussie farmers buy Kioti.

They were sold as Daedong, but changed there name about 8 years ago and where taken to court by Kubota copy right issues. Nice too see they giving Kubota and TYM a run for their money
