Another plus for the Mahindra is that it seems to be more of a "real" tractor vs the John Deere or Kubota. It is heavier then either of those tractors and is pushing a full half ton lift capacity with the bucket vs about 680 pounds for the JD or Kubota.

Pretty good review on the Mahindra Max 22 here:

Something else I picked up in that review was that the Mitsubishi 3 cylinder diesel engine is making that 22 hp at only 2500 rpm. most of the other tractors in this class are making that power at close to 3500 rpm, which means that the Mahindra is pushing a pretty substantial 46 ft. lbs of torque at 2500 rpm, which may be why it can lift so much more than the JD or Kubota.
