Kubota skid steers and track loaders

Kubota has 8 machines here, 2 on wheels and 6 on rubber tracks, priced $51,613 to $119,860. The range runs from the Kubota SSV65 up to the Kubota SVL110-3, listed biggest first by capacity measured the same way on every machine rather than as each brochure states it.

Kubota came late to track loaders. The first two, the 75 hp SVL75 and 90 hp SVL90, reached North American dealers at the end of June 2010, built in Japan with Kubota's own turbo diesels and a vertical lift path. That self-sufficiency is still the selling point: the engine, hydraulics and loader come from one company, and the machines are sold and serviced through the same dealer network as Kubota's tractors, which Kubota puts at more than 1,100 US dealers. Kubota's US limited warranty on SVL track loaders is 24 months or 2,000 hours, whichever comes first, with rubber tracks covered for 12 months or 1,000 hours.

The suffix on each model is its generation, and the page holds machines from more than one. The SVL75-3 arrived in 2023 and set the pattern for the third generation. The SVL97-3 followed at World of Concrete in January 2025 with a one-piece sealed cab, a 7-inch touchscreen, standard KubotaNOW telematics, a swing-out radiator and a rated capacity more than 250 lb above the SVL97-2 it replaced. At CONEXPO in 2026 Kubota added the SVL110-3, 112.7 hp with up to 45 GPM of auxiliary flow, as its largest track loader. At the small end the SVL65-2s carries the SVL65-2's engine and capacity with the newer operator station. The SSV65 and SSV75 are the wheeled skid steers, both vertical lift.

These are bought as machines that simply run, and buyers cross-shop them because the price undercuts Cat and Bobcat at the same frame size. The grumbles are consistent across generations: the overhead roll-up door and its struts, a front idler knock Kubota treats as normal, undercarriage wear on abrasive ground, and particulate filter regens on small machines that idle much of the day.
