TRANSMISSIONS OVERVIEW

The Kubota M125X features a 16-speed partial power shift transmission, offering optimal adaptability for varying field conditions and tasks, while a 24-speed option enhances versatility and efficiency. The transmission's design allows for smoother gear shifting, reducing operator fatigue during prolonged use, though it may require a learning curve for new users. In scenarios demanding rapid speed adjustments, the 24-speed configuration provides greater flexibility, beneficial for diverse farming applications.
