ENGINE DETAIL
The Challenger MT465D tractor is powered by a turbocharged 4-cylinder AGCO Power engine, delivering 120hp at 2200 RPM, making it suitable for medium to heavy agricultural tasks. Its 4.9L displacement and electronic high-pressure common rail fuel system enhance fuel efficiency and power delivery, while the use of Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) technology ensures compliance with Interim Tier IV emission standards. However, potential challenges include the complexity of the SCR system and the need for AdBlue, which could affect operational downtime in remote areas.
