ENGINE DETAIL
The AGCO DT225B tractor features a robust AGCO SISU POWER 84CTA turbocharged diesel engine with a displacement of 8.4 L, delivering a maximum power output of 295 hp and an impressive torque of 955 lb-ft at 1500 RPM, ideal for demanding agricultural tasks. Its use of an e3 SCR system for NOx reduction ensures compliance with Tier III emissions regulations, although the optional EGR system provides flexibility in emissions management. However, operators should be aware of the added complexity and maintenance needs associated with the SCR system and the necessity of using diesel exhaust fluid (DEF) for optimal performance.
