RENAULT CERES 65 POWER
ENGINE DETAIL
The Renault Ceres 65 tractor, powered by a John Deere 3029 DRT diesel engine, features a reliable 3-cylinder configuration with a displacement of 2.9L, offering a balance of power (55hp) and torque (151.2 lb-ft) at a relatively low RPM of 1500, which can enhance fuel efficiency and reduce engine wear during heavy loads. The engine's bore and stroke ratio (4.193 x 4.331 inches) contributes to its optimized torque delivery, making it suitable for tasks requiring consistent pulling power. However, its limited horsepower may restrict performance in high-demand applications, such as heavy tillage or transport, particularly in challenging terrains where higher power-to-weight ratios are advantageous.
