ENGINE DETAIL
The New Holland TC21DA features a Shibura 3-cylinder diesel engine with a compact 1.0L displacement, delivering 19.8 hp (14.8 kW) at 2600 RPM, which is suitable for light agricultural tasks and small-scale operations. Its two-stage dry air cleaner enhances engine efficiency, while glow plugs provide reliable starting in colder conditions. This tractor's power-to-weight ratio is favorable for maneuverability, but potential users should consider its limitations for heavy-duty applications due to its lower gross power output.
