Video: Kubota Narrow Tractors Compared | B2401, L3520 & L4802 Side by Side

Kubota is one of the only manufacturers in the U.S. market offering a purpose-built lineup of narrow specialty tractors, and all three models are worth understanding before choosing one for a tight-row application. The B2401 comes in just over 35 inches wide at 24 horsepower, making it the entry point for nurseries, greenhouses, and Christmas tree farms where row width is the primary buying criteria. The L3520 steps up to 35 horsepower and 39 inches wide, bringing a fully synchronized transmission exclusive to this model, a more refined operator platform, and significantly more three-point hitch capacity at roughly double the price. The L4802 tops the lineup at 48 horsepower and 53 inches wide but uses a non-synchronized transmission and comes in $300 less than the L3520, making the mid-range machine the most compelling option for many buyers who can work within its capacity limits.
