At the beginning of 1983, the Kubota M50 series was introduced, which was new both technically and in terms of design. The smallest model, the M4950, still had a 2.8-liter 6-cylinder engine, but the others had conventional 3- and 4-cylinder engines. The transmission was fully synchronized with 12+4 gears. The technology included, among other things, a front axle lock, hydrostatic steering, an adjustable steering wheel, and an oil-sprung seat. Starting from the M6950, power steering feedback was included. Kubota used low-profile but wide tires. Versions equipped with a roll-over protective structure and a cab were available for all models.

In 1984, the model range was complemented by the turbocharged M8950. It also featured a hydraulic quick-shift.
