FENDT F255GT POWER
ENGINES OVERVIEW
The Fendt F255GT tractor offers a choice between a KHD 2.8L 3-cylinder diesel engine and a KHD 3.8L 4-cylinder diesel engine, providing flexibility in power and fuel efficiency. The 3-cylinder variant is more compact, ideal for restricted spaces, while the 4-cylinder engine may deliver superior torque for heavier tasks. However, the 4-cylinder engine may come at the cost of increased weight and complexity, potentially impacting maneuverability in tight fields.
