The First Electric Kubota Tractor LXe 261
Kubota Corporation is pleased to announce that Kubota will be the first Japanese manufacturer to release electric tractors. Kubota offers a limited number of compact electric tractors LXe-261 in Europe, which is actively striving toward carbon neutrality. The LXe-261 will be made available for a long-term rental service for local municipalities in Europe starting in April 2023.
A major challenge in developing electric tractors has been ensuring hours of continuous operation. The LXe-261 is equipped with a large-capacity battery that can provide rapid one-hour charging and an average of three to four hours of continuous operation. Rapid charging over lunch for afternoon use after exhausting the batteries during morning work responds to the usage needs of local customers discovered through the LXe-261 tractor trails. The LXe-261 also realizes the output necessary for mowing, hauling, and other green space management work in parks and other natural reserves. It even offers almost the same compact size as tractors with diesel engines.
Kubota will not only receive customer feedback, learn the issues faced during actual use, and gain other insights through the long-term LXe-261 rental service, but it will also advance the development of eco-friendly products and further expand its product lineup.
