ENGINE SPECIFICATIONS

The John Deere 6R 175 features a robust 6.8L in-line, 6-cylinder diesel engine equipped with a variable geometry turbocharger, allowing for improved efficiency and power at a rated speed of 2100 rpm. Its Final Tier 4 emission compliance with DOC/DPF/SCR after treatment ensures environmentally friendly operation, though it may require more frequent maintenance related to the aftertreatment system. This tractor is ideal for demanding agricultural applications, balancing power and efficiency, but owners should account for potential downtime for emissions system maintenance.

ENGINE PERFORMANCE

The John Deere 6R 175 tractor delivers robust performance with a rated engine power of 175 hp and a peak engine power of 190 hp, enhancing productivity in demanding tasks. Its Intelligent Power Management (IPM) provides an additional 40 hp during transport or PTO applications, optimizing power delivery in variable conditions, while the engine's peak torque of 817 Nm supports heavy-duty operations. However, the significant PTO torque rise of 40% may lead to increased wear on connected implements, necessitating proper matching to avoid mechanical strain.
