MECHANICAL

The Challenger MT875E features a crawler drivetrain, which enhances traction and stability on uneven terrains, making it ideal for heavy-duty applications like tillage and planting. The power differential steering system provides improved maneuverability, which is advantageous in tighter spaces or when navigating obstacles. However, the standard air-conditioned cab, while enhancing operator comfort, adds weight, potentially affecting fuel efficiency during prolonged operations.
