KIOTI Tractor, a division of Daedong-USA, Inc., will be showcasing a pink MECHRON 2200 UTV at the World Ag Expo from February 12-14, 2013.  This special edition UTV will be displayed in support of breast cancer awareness, research and prevention.

The UTV is equipped with standard four-wheel drive and a fuel efficient 22 hp, three-cylinder, Daedong diesel engine.

Throughout the show, KIOTI Tractor will accept silent bids for the pink MECHRON 2200 UTV in their booth. One winner will be announced at the close of the exhibits.  All proceeds from the auction will be donated to the UNC Lineberger Comprehensive Cancer Center of Chapel Hill, NC, one of only 11 cancer centers in the nation with a Specialized Program of Research Excellence (SPORE) in breast cancer.  Attendees bidding must be at least 21 years of age.

“There is no better cause that we can contribute to than one that impacts so many of us personally,” states Peter Dong Kyun Kim, Chief Executive Officer of Daedong-USA, Inc.  “Our company is committed to increasing breast cancer awareness and to raising funds that can be used to advance research to find a cure.”

KIOTI Tractor recently held a similar silent auction at the Sunbelt Ago Expo in Moultrie, GA.  A pink CS2410 was the center of the event with the winning bid raising a total of $15,267, which was subsequently donated to the UNC Lineberger Center. 

Since its initial launch in 2011, the KIOTI MECHRON 2200 UTV, The Ultimate Transport Vehicle, has quickly gained popularity for its wide range of features for both work and play.  The UTV is equipped with standard four-wheel drive and a fuel efficient 22 hp, three-cylinder, Daedong diesel engine.  The MECHRON’s 56’’ wide cargo bed is the largest in its class, capable of holding up to 1,100 lbs., while its wide track, 2-inch wheels and 25-inch tires easily maneuver across rugged terrain.   

In addition to the limited edition pink MECHRON 2200 UTV, KIOTI Tractor will have a wide-range of equipment on display including models from the company’s CS, DS, CK, RX and DK tractor lines and a variety of implements and attachments.  

KIOTI Tractor would like to thank LSG, Inc. of Raleigh, NC and Barnes Collision & Repair of Zebulon, NC for their efforts in the preparation of the pink UTV for the show.
