JCB FASTRAC 3185 POWER
ENGINE DETAIL
The JCB Fastrac 3185 is powered by a Cummins 6 BTA diesel engine offering robust performance with 188hp and maximum torque of 553.2 lb-ft at 1400 RPM, making it suitable for heavy-duty applications like towing and plowing. Its intercooled turbocharging enhances efficiency and power delivery, while a liquid-cooled system ensures optimal operating temperatures under sustained loads. However, the relatively high displacement may lead to increased fuel consumption compared to smaller engines, necessitating careful fuel management for cost-effectiveness in larger agricultural operations.
