UPTON 225 POWER
ENGINE DETAIL
The Upton 225 tractor is powered by a Nissan UD225 2-stroke, 5-cylinder diesel engine, which offers a substantial power output of 225 hp and impressive torque of 543 lb-ft peaking at 1500 RPM, ideal for heavy-duty applications. The 16:1 compression ratio and liquid cooling system enhance efficiency and longevity, making it suitable for extended operation under load. However, the 2-stroke design may produce higher emissions and noise levels compared to modern 4-stroke engines, necessitating additional consideration for regulatory compliance and operator comfort.

UPTON 225 ENGINE
The Upton 225 tractor, powered by a Nissan 6.2L 5-cylinder diesel engine, offers robust torque characteristics and fuel efficiency, making it suitable for heavy-duty agricultural tasks. Its 5-cylinder configuration enhances smooth power delivery, though it may lead to increased engine vibrations compared to a 6-cylinder design. Ideal for medium to large farms, operators should be aware of the potential need for specialized parts and service due to the engine's less common application in the market.

MECHANICAL
The Upton 225 tractor features a 4x2 two-wheel drive (2WD) chassis, which provides adequate traction for light to moderate agricultural tasks. While its 2WD configuration improves fuel efficiency and reduces operational costs, it may struggle on slippery or uneven terrain compared to a 4WD system. Ideal for flat fields and smaller farms, this tractor is best suited for tasks like planting and mowing where maneuverability is essential.
