TRANSMISSION

The Challenger MT835B features a Cat Powershift transmission with 16 forward and 4 reverse gears, providing seamless shifting and enhanced operator control, ideal for varying field applications. The hydraulic wet disc clutch delivers smooth engagement and greater durability, minimizing wear during heavy-duty tasks. However, the complexity of the full power shift may require additional operator training, particularly in precision applications like tillage or planting.
