Q&A
What is the difference between the 1E 23, 1M 25, and 1R 25?
The 1E 23 is the entry-level model at 21.5 HP with an open station — great for mowing and light loader work. The 1M 25 steps up to 23.2 HP and adds a factory HVAC cab option, tilt steering, digital fuel gauge, and Smart Connector. The 1R 25 matches the 1M 25 on HP but adds a wider 63″ wheelbase, heavy-duty frame, and 803 lb loader lift capacity — the best option if you need maximum stability and heavy-duty attachments.
Does the new John Deere 1 Series have a cab?
Yes. For the first time in this class, the 1M 25 and 1R 25 can be equipped with a factory-installed HVAC cab with both heat and air conditioning, so you can work comfortably year-round. The 1E 23 remains an open station model.
What does the John Deere 1025R get replaced with?
The 1025R is replaced by the new John Deere 1M 25 for Model Year 2027 — same compact versatility, with major upgrades including the optional HVAC cab, tilt steering, digital fuel gauge, and Smart Connector now standard.
When will the new John Deere 1 Series be available?
