Feb. 25 2026 Miscellaneous By Hyde Park Equipment Ltd

For over 20 years, Kubota has led the sub-compact tractor market—and the BX80 Series is the most refined generation yet. Designed and manufactured by Kubota from front to rear, the BX80 lineup delivers the durability of a diesel tractor in a size that’s easy to maneuver around homes, acreages, and commercial properties.

Four Models. One Standard of Performance.

  • BX1880 – 16.6 HP

  • BX2380 – 21.6 HP

  • BX2680 – 23.3 HP

  • BX23S – 21.6 HP (Factory TLB: Tractor, Loader, Backhoe)

Each model is powered by a Kubota built, liquid-cooled 3-cylinder diesel engine and paired with a smooth 2-range HST transmission for effortless forward and reverse control.

Built for Reliability 

Kubota designs and manufactures the BX Series in-house, no re-branding, no outsourcing. 

Key durability features include:

  • Kubota built diesel engines

  • All-metal hood, fenders, and chassis

  • Reliable 2-range hydrostatic transmission

  • Live independent PTO

  • Hydrostatic power steering

With lift capacities up to 680 lbs (3-point hitch) and strong hydraulic output, the BX80 is ready for demanding property maintenance year-round.


Comfort That Works as Hard as You Do 

The BX80 Series blends compact size with surprising operator comfort:

  • Flat deck design with left-side brake

  • Tilt steering (select models)

  • High-back reclining deluxe seat (excluding BX1880)

  • Easy-to-read instrument panel with optimal RPM indicator

  • Optional cruise control

  • Foldable ROPS (under 7 ft on most models for garage access)

Optional cab packages (BX4070CA / BX4090CA) add LED work lights and windshield wipers—ideal for Canadian winters.
