John Deere Unveils Redesigned 1 Series Compact Utility Tractors for 2027
12 February 2026, Cary: Designed to deliver enhanced year-round performance, comfort, and versatility for property owners, John Deere debuts its new 1 Series Compact Utility Tractors (CUTs). Ideal for landscaping, property maintenance, and snow removal, the updated line-up, including the 1E 23, 1M 25 and 1R 25 models, features improved ergonomics, greater attachment readiness and a new naming and numbering system that aligns with the broader John Deere tractor portfolio.
“With the rollout of our model year 2027 compact utility tractors, we focused on what property owners told us they needed most, including greater comfort, easier operation and true year-round capability,” said Mark Davey, marketing manager, John Deere. “By offering a factory-installed HVAC cab and improved operator conveniences, we’re giving customers a smarter, more versatile machine that fits the ways they actually work.”
Offering an all-weather experience, the 1M 25 and 1R 25 CUT models can now be equipped with a factory-installed HVAC cab. This enables property owners to utilize their machine regardless of the exterior weather conditions while promoting increased operator comfort. Also enhancing the user experience, the newly redesigned fender console improves machine ergonomics for more intuitive operations. The 1M 25 and 1R 25 CUTs both feature standard tilt steering for enhanced comfort and a new digital fuel gauge.
New with model year 2027, the factory-installed third-function is integrated with the single-point hydraulic connector option for easier loader removal. The mid-lift ready option supports mower decks, making for a more versatile tractor. In combination these features help expand implement compatibility, making these tractors more versatile than ever for property owners who want to tackle a wide range of tasks with confidence.
Keeping property owners up and running, the MY27 CUTs feature enhanced serviceability features and lighting components. Providing streamlined serviceability and better access to the machine’s key components, all models now feature a one-piece hood that opens 77 degrees for easier access and simplified maintenance. To support work in low‑light conditions, 1M and 1R models feature standard LED headlights, with the 1R also equipped with standard front LED work lights. For added flexibility, front and rear LED work lights are available as field‑installed options across all 1 Series models, allowing customers to tailor visibility to their specific tasks.
Lastly, focusing on connectivity, 1M and 1R series customers can benefit from the now-standard smart connector, which seamlessly integrates with John Deere Equipment Mobile to support real-time machine data, maintenance alerts and ownership and service insights. These real-time maintenance alerts and machine data help make for smarter decision making and provide an all-in-one solution for property work.
