London, UK

Kubota is proud to announce the launch of the M7004 tractor series, marking a decade of innovation in the flagship M7 tractor lineup. The launch in 2014 of the first M7 series tractor signified a major leap for Kubota into a new segment, quickly establishing itself as a mainstay in the agricultural sector.

The M7004 is the latest evolution, featuring key updates designed to enhance operator experience, functionality, and performance. Powered by a proven 6.1-litre, four-cylinder Kubota engine producing 130-175hp, the three-model M7004 series maintains its reputation for class-leading performance.

Like its predecessors, the M7004 offers a choice of two transmissions; powershift or KVT (Kubota Variable Transmission), with the latter gaining updated pre-set droop settings for customisable transmission sensitivity and optimum fuel efficiency.

Key updates are geared around operator convenience, with a newly repositioned cooling pack at the front of the engine creating much better access to key components, while simplifying maintenance.

Operator convenience is further improved with repositioned fuel and DEF tanks, along with cab steps that create easier access and egress from the tractor. A new automatic assisted parking brake is integrated within the tractor shuttle in order to stop and park safely. In addition, the K-Monitor benefits from a new quad-core processor that delivers expanded functionality and faster processing speeds.

The launch of the new M7004 series also coincides with Kubota celebrating its 50th anniversary in Europe. To mark the occasion, 50 anniversary edition M7004 tractors will be produced, each featuring a striking orange and black wrap.

The M7004 series integrates seamlessly with Kubota’s existing packages, including extended warranty up to 5-years/5,000-hours, plus Kubota Connect – the very latest in tractor telematics that enables users to remotely access tractor location and key operating functions, to improve asset management.
