In the fall of 1995, the first Same Dorados were introduced, with 60 and 70 horsepower. The air-cooled engine was a 3-cylinder in the smaller model and a 4-cylinder in the larger one. The engine control was electronic. Torque increase of 17 and 18% was promised. The basic transmission was 20+10 gears, but the 40 km/h versions had 30+15 gears. As an option, there was the Agroshift system equipped with a 3-step hydraulic quick shift and a direction reverser, offering 45+45 gears.

The exterior design, styled by Giugiaro, was more rounded than previous small Same models. The cab was low (240 cm), but had a flat floor. The glass surfaces were curved and the doors were fully glazed. The noise level was 81-82 dB. The turning radius was very small, and the wheel steering angle was 55 degrees. Like the larger Same models, the Dorado also had disc brakes on all four wheels. The power take-off had 3 speeds as well as a driving power take-off, and the PTO engagement was electro-hydraulic. The steering pump was separate, but with the standard pump the hydraulic output remained at 36 liters.
