Bobcat Adds Two New Models to Compact Tractor Lineup

Bobcat Company has expanded its compact tractor lineup with the addition of its new 4500 platform, introducing two powerful models—the CT4545 and CT4558. The company is also unveiling a new front-end loader size, the FL9-2, designed to further enhance lifting performance and productivity for operators.

Ideal for agriculture, landscaping, property management and a wide range of daily tasks, these new tractors deliver dependable performance for everything from feeding livestock and hauling materials to mowing, grading, snow removal and brush clearing.

All-Weather Comfort for Long Days in the Field

The 4500 platform builds on many of the customer-favorite features found in the Bobcat 4000 series, while adding a fully enclosed, heated and air-conditioned cab for true all-season operation.

“Rain or shine, operators will find exceptional comfort in the new CT4545 and CT4558,” said Kylle DeMars, product manager. “These tractors are designed to make a long day’s work as comfortable and productive as possible.”

Rubber isolators between the cab and tractor frame reduce noise and vibration, while the large glass panels deliver exceptional panoramic visibility. A rear window provides a clear view of the 3-point hitch for precise implement adjustments.

Power, Precision and Smooth Operation

Both new models pack reliable performance:

• CT4545: 45 horsepower

• CT4558: 58 horsepower

Each tractor features a cab-integrated joystick and a hydrostatic transmission, making direction changes fast and intuitive. This combination allows operators to easily maneuver when working with front-end loaders, mowing through tight areas or clearing brush along tree lines.

New FL9-2 Front-End Loader for Bigger Jobs

The introduction of the FL9-2 front-end loader adds even more versatility to the 4500 platform. With impressive lift height and capacity, this loader is built for digging, dirt moving, loading materials, and tackling a wide range of heavier-duty tasks.

Operator-Friendly Features Designed for Productivity

The CT4545 and CT4558 include a long list of standard features that support efficiency and ease of use:

• Twin-pedal design for quick forward/reverse transitions

• PTO cruise, maintaining consistent speed under changing load conditions

• Draft control, reducing manual adjustments and operator fatigue

• Standard four-wheel drive for improved traction in all conditions

• Quick-attach loader mounting system for fast implement changes

Expansive Attachment Compatibility

The 4500 platform tractors are compatible with dozens of Bobcat attachments and implements, offering unmatched versatility for year-round tasks. Popular choices include pallet forks, grapples, augers, angle blades, snowblowers, tillers, bale spears and additional tools for landscaping, farming and property maintenance.

Availability

The CT4545 and CT4558 compact tractors, along with the new FL9-2 loader, will be available through Bobcat dealerships across North America beginning in Q2 2025.
