KUBOTA M6-111 ENGINE

The Kubota M6-111 is powered by a 3.8L 4-cylinder diesel engine, offering robust torque for heavy-duty applications. With a 50.2-gallon fuel tank, it provides extended operational periods, making it suitable for large-scale agricultural tasks without frequent refueling. However, the inclusion of a 5.3-gallon DEF tank signifies a requirement for maintenance of emission standards, which could present challenges in remote areas with limited DEF availability.

TRANSMISSIONS OVERVIEW

The Kubota M6-111 features a 24-speed partial power shift transmission, offering a blend of efficiency and versatility for varying field conditions. This gearbox allows operators to select optimum speeds for both transport and fieldwork, enhancing productivity. However, the partial power shift may present a learning curve for users transitioning from fully automatic systems, potentially impacting initial operational efficiency.
