MASSEY FERGUSON 3115 POWER
ENGINE DETAIL
The Massey Ferguson 3115 tractor is powered by a Perkins Quadram 6-cylinder diesel engine, offering a robust torque of 321.6 lb-ft at a low 1100 RPM, which enhances its ability to handle heavy-duty applications efficiently. Its 115 hp at 2200 RPM means it can operate various implements effectively, making it suitable for tasks such as plowing or hauling, especially in agricultural scenarios. However, the relatively high displacement of 6.0L may lead to increased fuel consumption, so operators should consider fuel costs when selecting this model for extended use.
