ENGINE DETAIL

The Agrico 4+160 tractor features a robust Mercedes-Benz OM 906LA engine that provides significant power and torque, making it suitable for heavy-duty applications such as plowing or towing. With a displacement of 6.4 L and a torque peak at 1400 RPM, it offers a balance of efficiency and performance, crucial for demanding tasks. However, the high compression ratio of 17.4:1 may necessitate the use of higher-quality diesel fuel to prevent knocking, which could influence operating costs in the long term.

TRANSMISSION

The Agrico 4+160 tractor features a 6-speed transmission, allowing for efficient power transfer and versatile speed management across various agricultural tasks. This setup enhances control during both high-torque applications, like tilling, and higher-speed activities, such as transport. However, operators may face a steeper learning curve with shifting, especially in complex terrains, potentially impacting productivity in the initial phase.
