TRANSMISSION
The Mahindra 5525 features an 8-speed forward and 2-speed reverse gear system, allowing for versatile speed selection suitable for various applications such as plowing and transporting loads. The wide gear range enhances maneuverability, particularly in tight spaces or on uneven terrain. However, operators may experience a learning curve in mastering the gear shifting for optimal performance in different field conditions.
| Gears | 8 forward and 2 reverse |
MECHANICAL
The Mahindra 5525 features a 4x2 2WD chassis, which offers a straightforward design ideal for light agricultural tasks; however, it may limit traction in hilly or muddy environments. The hydrostatic power steering enhances maneuverability, making it user-friendly, especially for prolonged use. Its 8-speed transmission allows optimal speed adjustments for various applications, but may lack the versatility of more advanced 4WD systems in challenging conditions.
