Mitsubishi – other models: the collective page of Japanese compact tractors outside the named ranges, from the D and MT range to the Asuma models, 10 to 75 kW, Mitsubishi diesel engines
This page gathers the Mitsubishi tractors the register could not assign to a named range – the D range (D1300 to D3250) of the 1970s and 1980s, the extensive MT range of compact utility tractors, the models sold with the Asuma suffix GA36, GA50, GE130, GE170 and GX511ET, and the crawler tractor GCR1010. Mitsubishi has built compact tractors since the 1960s, initially within the Mitsubishi Heavy Industries group, since 2015 through the joint venture Mitsubishi Mahindra Agricultural Machinery with the Indian maker Mahindra. D on models such as the D1500FD and D2500 marks the D range, HST variants the hydrostatic transmission. The machines are powered throughout by Mitsubishi's own diesel engines.

The register lists here 14 versions with 10.1 to 75 kW (13.5 to 101 hp) from two- to four-cylinders of 660 to 1,500 cm³, unladen weights from 600 to 1,900 kg, gross weights from 1,210 to 2,100 kg, lengths from 2,200 to 3,200 mm and widths from 1,100 to 1,480 mm.
Mitsubishi ranks alongside Kubota, Yanmar and Iseki among the four big Japanese compact-tractor makers, whose models were sold in Japan through agricultural cooperatives and for export through its own channels and under trade brands; the small D and MT models shaped rice growing on small-plot farms in Japan.
On used examples, operating hours, the condition of the Mitsubishi diesel engine, regarded as long-lived, the condition of the hydrostat or clutch, rust on cab and bodywork, and on the small models the availability of parts outside Japan count; parts run through Mitsubishi or Mahindra importers and partly through Japanese used-machinery dealers.

What to check before buying
- Check the hour meter against the service records — a replaced instrument is the most common gap.
- Compare the data plate and chassis number with the papers.
- Check the weights in the papers against the figures here — attachments change them.
- Load the hydraulics and watch for sag.
- Ask about parts availability for this build year — the running costs hang on it.
