Brand New KX040-5 Is Here: Compact Power Meets Modern Innovation

For years, the Kubota KX040 has been a favorite on job sites of every size. Contractors, landscapers, utility crews, and property owners have relied on it for one simple reason: it delivers serious digging power without the bulk of a larger machine. Now the KX040 joins Kubota's DASH-5 series, and the upgrades make an already proven excavator more comfortable, capable, and ready for the demands of modern work.

A Proven Performer, Reimagined

The KX040 earned its reputation by striking the right balance. It's big enough to handle trenching, excavation, grading, and material handling with confidence, yet compact enough to work in tight residential lots, backyards, and crowded urban sites where bigger equipment can't go. It's also easy to transport between jobs, which saves time and money over the course of a busy season.

With the move to the DASH-5 series, Kubota kept everything operators love about the KX040 and focused on improving the experience inside the cab, where operators spend their entire workday.

A Redesigned Cabin Built Around the Operator

The biggest story with the KX040-5 is its redesigned cabin. Kubota understands that a comfortable, well-organized workspace isn't a luxury. It directly affects productivity, safety, and fatigue at the end of a long shift. The new cab brings modern upgrades that make the machine easier to run and more pleasant to operate hour after hour.

Rearview Camera for Better Visibility. Knowing what's behind you is critical on a busy job site. The KX040-5 includes a rearview camera that gives operators a clear view of the area behind the machine. That added visibility helps protect crew members, nearby structures, and the machine itself, especially when working in confined spaces or around foot traffic.

Programmable Auxiliary Hydraulics. Today's compact excavators do far more than dig, and attachments are a big part of that versatility. With programmable auxiliary hydraulics, operators can set flow to match the attachment they're running, whether that's a hydraulic breaker, thumb, auger, or another tool. Instead of manually readjusting every time you swap attachments, you can dial in your settings and get back to work faster. For crews that switch tools frequently throughout the day, this feature pays for itself in saved time.

Who Is the KX040-5 For?

The KX040-5 is a strong fit for a wide range of users, including general contractors handling foundations and site prep, landscapers building retaining walls, ponds, and drainage systems, utility and plumbing crews digging trenches for water, sewer, and electrical lines, rental fleets that need a dependable, operator-friendly machine, and property owners and farmers tackling large projects on their own land.

If your work calls for real excavating power but you need a machine that can maneuver through gates, around homes, and into tight spaces, the KX040-5 was built with you in mind.

Pricing and Financing Options

The Kubota KX040-5 comes with a base price of $79,510, and there are flexible ways to make it part of your fleet:
