ENGINE DETAIL

The Massey Ferguson 4455 features a SISU turbocharged intercooled diesel engine, delivering 99.9 hp at a rated RPM of 2270, making it well-suited for moderate farming tasks and operations requiring consistent power. With a torque output of 265 lb-ft at 1400 RPM, it provides excellent low-end performance for tasks such as plowing and hauling heavy loads. A potential challenge is its dry air cleaner, which may require more frequent maintenance in dusty environments compared to wet systems, impacting uptime.
