MITSUBISHI GM500 POWER
ENGINE DETAIL
The Mitsubishi GM500 tractor is powered by a Shibaura N4LDI-T turbocharged diesel engine with a displacement of 2.2L, providing 49.5 hp at a rated RPM of 2600, ensuring efficient fuel utilization through direct injection. Key advantages include enhanced torque delivery and fuel efficiency due to the turbocharger, making it suitable for demanding agricultural tasks. However, its moderate power output may limit performance in heavier-duty applications compared to larger tractors.

MITSUBISHI GM500 TIRES
The Mitsubishi GM500 tractor features standard agricultural tires designed for diverse terrain, with a front tire size of 8-18 and a rear size of 13.6-28, which enhances traction and stability during field operations. One advantage is its optimized weight distribution, improving plowing and tilling efficiency; however, limited flotation may pose challenges in wet conditions. Ideal for small to medium-sized farms, the GM500 can effectively perform tasks such as tilling, planting, and transporting materials.
