Kubota has begun previewing its upcoming SVL110-3 compact track loader, positioning the machine as the most powerful model in the SVL lineup to date. Early demonstrations highlight a combination of higher hydraulic performance, improved service access, and new operator focused technologies aimed at demanding construction, land clearing, and heavy material handling applications.
The new loader represents the next evolution of Kubota’s compact track platform and is expected to build on the success of the current SVL series, which has become widely adopted across North America for contractors, rental fleets, and large scale landscaping operations.
Kubota SVL110-3 Engine Power and Operating Weight Specifications
At the core of the SVL110-3 is a 112.7 horsepower Kubota diesel engine, making it one of the highest output power units currently offered in Kubota’s compact track loader portfolio.
The machine carries an operating weight of approximately 12,322 pounds, placing it firmly in the heavy duty class of compact track loaders designed for high traction and high load capacity environments.
This weight category is typically favored for tasks such as:
- land clearing and forestry preparation;
- bulk material movement;
- grading and site preparation;
- heavy duty attachment operation.
Higher machine mass combined with the track undercarriage improves traction and stability when operating in soft soils, loose material, or uneven terrain.
High Flow Hydraulics and APS Auxiliary Performance System
Hydraulic capability is one of the key performance highlights of the SVL110-3. Kubota indicates the loader will deliver 45 gallons per minute hydraulic flow, placing it among the higher flow machines in the compact track loader segment.
The system incorporates APS or Auxiliary Performance System, which is designed to optimize hydraulic output when operating high demand attachments such as:
- forestry mulchers;
- cold planers;
- large hydraulic augers;
- snow blowers;
- heavy duty brush cutters.
High flow hydraulic capacity significantly expands the range of compatible attachments and improves productivity in demanding applications.
Toolless Swing Out Radiator Improves Daily Maintenance Access
Kubota has also redesigned the cooling system access to simplify routine service.
The SVL110-3 features a toolless swing out radiator assembly, allowing operators or technicians to access cooling components without removing panels or using tools.
This layout improves serviceability in several ways:
- faster cleaning of radiator and cooling fins;
- improved inspection of cooling components;
- reduced downtime during routine maintenance.
In high dust environments such as land clearing or mulching operations, easy radiator access can be critical to maintaining engine performance and preventing overheating.
First Kubota SVL Model Equipped with Creep Mode
One of the most notable new features is Creep Mode, making the SVL110-3 the first Kubota compact track loader equipped with this functionality.
Creep Mode allows the operator to maintain a constant ground speed while independently adjusting attachment speed through engine RPM.
This feature is particularly useful for applications that require consistent forward movement combined with high hydraulic output, including:
- trenching
- mulching
- cold planing
- soil stabilization
By separating travel speed from engine speed, operators can maximize attachment performance without sacrificing machine control.
New Operator Comfort Features and Digital Interface
Kubota is also expanding operator focused technology in the SVL110-3 platform.
Highlighted cab features include:
- One piece sealed and pressurized cab designed to reduce dust and debris infiltration.
- LCD touchscreen display for machine settings and diagnostics.
- Rear view camera for improved visibility during reverse operation.
- Keyless start system for simplified operator access and security.
- Heated air suspension seat for improved ride comfort.
The machine also introduces a two speed travel system with shockless ride and automatic shifting, designed to provide smoother acceleration and improved travel efficiency across job sites.
