ENGINE DETAIL

The Mitsubishi GM450, powered by a Shibaura N4LDI-T turbocharged diesel engine, delivers 45.6 hp at 2600 RPM, making it suitable for medium-duty agricultural tasks with efficient power application. The direct injection fuel system enhances fuel atomization, resulting in improved combustion efficiency and reduced emissions. However, with a displacement of 2.2L and its specific bore/stroke ratio, it may face challenges in torque delivery at lower RPMs, ideal for applications requiring steady power output rather than rapid acceleration.

MITSUBISHI GM450 ENGINE

The Mitsubishi GM450 is powered by a Shibaura 2.2L 4-cylinder diesel engine, offering commendable fuel efficiency and torque for various agricultural applications. With a 14.5-gallon fuel tank, it provides extended operational range, making it suitable for extended fieldwork without frequent refueling. However, the 2.2L engine may limit power output for heavier towing or larger implements, which could be a consideration depending on the user's specific agricultural needs.

TRANSMISSION

The Mitsubishi GM450 tractor features a syncromesh transmission with 16 forward and reverse gears, enhancing versatility for diverse operating conditions. The dry disc clutch provides reliable engagement and disengagement, although it may require more maintenance compared to wet clutches. Its four-speed ranges, combined with shuttle shifting, facilitate smooth transitions between speeds, making it suitable for both agricultural and construction applications, but operators should be mindful of potential gear grinding if not managed properly during shifts.

Gears 16 forward and reverse
Clutch dry disc
Description Four gears (1-4) in four ranges (creeper, low, medium, and high) with shuttle shift.

MECHANICAL

The Mitsubishi GM450 features a 4x4 MFWD chassis, enhancing traction on various terrains, making it suitable for both agricultural and construction applications. Its power steering provides improved maneuverability, while the 16-speed syncromesh transmission allows for precise control across different speeds, optimizing efficiency. The optional cab can enhance operator comfort in adverse weather conditions, although the two-post ROPS design may limit overall protection compared to a full cab structure.
