Kioti’s HX1302 and HX1402 Utility Tractors Are Its Most Powerful Units Yet

Big Horsepower, Smart Tech and Serious Lift Capacity Headline These Latest Machines
Kioti is having a busy year. The company launched its CS30 Series sub-compact tractor just weeks ago. Now, it’s expanding its utility lineup with the all-new HX1302 and HX1402 — the most powerful tractors Kioti has ever released. The HX1302 and HX1402 are built for tough jobs like baling, cultivating and grading. Each model is powered by a four-cylinder, water-cooled diesel engine. The HX1402 delivers up to 140 gross hp and 120 PTO hp — a serious upgrade in this segment. From the press release:
“The HX1302 and HX1402 utility tractors represent a significant advancement in stability, power, and versatility,” said Joel Hicks, product line manager for tractors at KIOTI. “These new models empower operators to tackle demanding tasks across farming, land management, and grounds maintenance. KIOTI remains dedicated to delivering innovative solutions that enable our customers to achieve exceptional results.”
Both models feature a power shift transmission that enables seamless shifting under load. Infinite speed control boosts precision, while top speeds hit 25 mph. Operators get smooth power delivery and less fatigue, even during long days in the field.
Hydraulic Muscle and Versatility
These tractors boast a closed-center hydraulic system pumping 44 gpm — perfect for demanding attachments. The rear PTO includes 540, 540E and 1,000 rpm settings. A category II three-point hitch supports up to 8,492 lbs of lift capacity. That means big tools, big lifts and big productivity gains. The HX Series includes Kioti Connect TMS, a telematics system that delivers real-time machine data and alerts. An illuminated digital dash displays critical info at a glance, including maintenance warnings and status updates. This technology helps reduce downtime and keeps operators ahead of any potential issues.
Kioti didn’t forget about comfort. The HX models come with deluxe suspension seating, an instructor seat, adjustable controls and ergonomic layout. The heavy chassis increases stability, especially on rough or sloped terrain.
CS30 Series: Sub-Compact, Big Features
Earlier this spring, Kioti debuted its CS30 Series sub-compact tractor. It’s the first in its class with a factory-installed climate-controlled cab. The cab also features a premium seat, Bluetooth AV system and a rearview camera. A 24.5-hp diesel engine powers this nimble machine, offering mid and rear PTOs for versatility. Operators can use multiple attachments at once, while intuitive twin pedals and push-button four-wheel drive make driving easy.
Smart Connected Service with Kioti Connect
Launched in February, the Kioti Connect app helps owners track machine health, location and service intervals. Features include:
- Real-time performance monitoring
- Predictive maintenance alerts
- Geofencing and security functions
- OpenAI-powered tips and diagnostics
Free for the first three years on HX, RX and compact construction models, Kioti Connect aims to simplify equipment ownership.
Flow+ System Boosts Attachment Performance
For skid steers and track loaders, Kioti introduced its Flow+ hydraulic system earlier this year. It delivers higher flow than standard systems — up to 34 gpm and 65.7 hydraulic hp — without the heat and fuel demands of high-flow setups. Flow+ supports a broader range of attachments and allows for quicker swaps, improving uptime and efficiency.
Kioti Continues to Impress
From utility tractors to connected services and upgraded hydraulics, Kioti is staying busy and getting noticed. The HX1302 and HX1402 are just the latest in a lineup of innovative releases for 2025. If the past few months are any indicator, Kioti isn’t slowing down anytime soon. For more info, visit kioti.com.
