Kubota Rolls Out First SVL75-3 Compact Track Loader Off Its Salina, Kansas Line—Cementing $300M North America Bet on America’s #1-Selling Skid Steer

Summary :

Kubota North America announced on August 18, 2026 that the first SVL75-3—the company’s #1-selling compact track loader in the United States based on 2021-2025 sales data—rolled off the assembly line at its Great Plains Manufacturing plant in Salina, Kansas, marking the flagship SKU’s first ever U.S.-built unit.

The Salina line will now assemble the SVL75-3 alongside existing SVL65-2 units in a mixed-model configuration, adding skilled manufacturing jobs to the local workforce and extending Kubota’s multi-year commitment of more than US$300 million in Salina construction-equipment infrastructure. Todd Stucke, President of Kubota North America, said “by increasing output of America’s #1-selling compact track loader from our Kansas operations, we’re strengthening our ability to meet customer demand faster and more efficiently.” The announcement layers on top of Kubota’s previously disclosed compact construction equipment test center groundbreaking earlier in 2026 for North American design and engineering, its 2016 buildout of construction machinery attachment operations, and the 2021 opening of the CERDNA research facility on the same campus. The moves collectively convert Kubota’s North American footprint from a distribution/assembly node into an integrated make-design-test hub—a defensive response to tariff volatility and a lever to compress delivery lead-time for U.S. contractor customers.

Why Selected:

A Japanese OEM converting its “America’s #1-selling” SKU from imported to Kansas-built in one release—the crispest read on how tariff regimes are pushing Asian equipment majors from assembly-node to integrated-hub North American manufacturing.
