I’m not sure about Red, Orange, Blue but Green outsources theirs.
No one tends to complain that small zero turns all have Kawasaki motors it seems!

This guy has a very informative You Tube channel about tractors and tractor operating. I bought mu Kubota L3901 3 years ago and his channel has been very helpful. The link below is about which compact tractor he thinks is the best. Hope it helps.

We sit right smack in the middle of a dealer of each JD, Mahindra and Kubota. When we purchased our Kubota L3800 in 2014, I shopped all 3 and went with the kubota based on price at sale, quality of service after the sale and references of reliability from friends with like models. Like anything there will be some that have bad eggs. We graduated from a 1952 8N to the L3800 and we’ve been happy ever since. Good luck in your decision and have fun while working with whatever you go with!!

I am going to be a bit abrasive in this farm community, BUT I have a good friend that is now selling Yanmar. A group I knew nothing about, but seems to be gaining ground and steam in the market. Just from what I have seen, they are competitively priced and do well on service themselves.
Guess the point I am making is this. Sure Either tractor you asked about will get the job done and with enough pennies can be worthwhile. There are other options, and you owe it to yourself to find out about them.
My John Deere is a Yanmar . Great little tractor.
I’d go with the one that offers you the best deal.

I totally agree with which dealer will provide best service. In the past I was a die hard JD guy. The local dealership is so pathetic I decided to move on. I have dealership of all makes around me. When I was looking for a tractor for the ranch I looked at JD, new Holland, mahindra, massey and kubota
Absolutely nothing wrong with a Mahindra tractor. Just didn't have the features i was looking for in a tractor.
