John Deere 1 Series compact tractors, including the 1023E and 1025R, deliver power and maneuverability for mowing, hauling and landscaping projects around your property. With easy controls, quick-change attachments and legendary reliability, they handle everything from daily chores to seasonal cleanups.

Both 1 Series tractors take a 54D or 60D AutoConnect mid-mower deck that can be installed or removed in less than 5 minutes. Add a 120R Quik-Park loader, which mounts and comes off in about a minute with no tools, and the same tractor moves mulch, gravel and snow.

What is a sub-compact tractor?
A sub-compact tractor is the smallest size of compact utility tractor. The John Deere 1 Series has a 57.1 in. wheelbase and a diesel engine, so it is easy to maneuver on a smaller property while still running a mid-mower deck, a front loader and three-point implements.
Should I buy the 1023E or the 1025R?
The 1023E is the value-focused choice for basic mowing, loader work and light chores. The 1025R adds 2.4 more gross horsepower, cruise control, a premium operator station and an available cab, which makes a difference if you use the tractor often or year-round.
What is the difference between the 1025R and the 2025R?
Both have 23.9 HP gross engine power. The 2025R is built on a larger frame with a longer wheelbase (63 in. vs 57.1 in.) and more rear lift (915 lb vs 758 lb), so it suits heavier three-point work.
What warranty comes with a John Deere 1 Series tractor?
1 Series tractors carry 2 years of coverage, with powertrain coverage for 6 years or 2,000 hours, whichever comes first.
How much does a John Deere 1 Series tractor cost?
