ENGINES OVERVIEW

The Ursus C-385 features a robust 4.6L 4-cylinder diesel engine, providing a balanced mix of power and torque for mid-sized agricultural tasks. Its design prioritizes durability and efficiency, but its relatively heavy weight can impact maneuverability in compact spaces. Ideal for moderate to heavy-duty applications, it may face challenges in fuel efficiency compared to smaller models, particularly during extended operation.

ENGINE DETAIL 1

The Ursus C-385 features a robust Z-7501 diesel engine with a notable displacement of 4.6L, providing a reliable power output of 85hp at 2200 RPM, making it suitable for various agricultural applications. Its torque peak of 197.7 lb-ft at 1130 RPM ensures strong pulling capability, which is advantageous for heavy-duty tasks. However, the relatively high compression ratio of 17:1 may require optimal fuel quality to avoid knocking, presenting a potential challenge in areas with lower-grade diesel availability.

ENGINE DETAIL 2

The Ursus C-385 features a turbocharged 4-cylinder engine with a displacement of 4.6L, delivering a robust torque of 236 lb-ft at 1650 RPM, which enhances low-end power for tasks requiring high pulling capacity. Its bore and stroke dimensions (110x120 mm) enable efficient combustion and performance, although the relatively low rated RPM of 2200 may limit its top-speed applications compared to higher-RPM counterparts. Ideal for agricultural operations, the C-385 excels in fieldwork but could face challenges in heavy-duty transport scenarios due to its torque characteristics and RPM range.

The Ursus C-385 is powered by a robust 4.6L 4-cylinder diesel engine, providing a balance of power and efficiency for agricultural tasks. The generous 23.8-gallon fuel tank supports extended operation periods, reducing the frequency of refueling during long fieldwork scenarios. However, while the engine's size offers good torque, it may be less fuel-efficient under lighter loads compared to smaller tractors.

TRANSMISSION

The Ursus C-385 features a partial power shift transmission with a total of 16 forward and 8 reverse speeds, achieved through a torque amplifier that effectively doubles the gear ratios. This allows for greater versatility in both high and low-speed applications, improving efficiency during various agricultural tasks. However, operators may need to adapt to the complexity of gear changes, which can pose a learning curve in operational efficiency and drive engagement.

MECHANICAL

The Ursus C-385 tractor features a versatile chassis option, allowing for either 2WD or 4WD configurations, which enhances traction and stability, especially in diverse agricultural terrains. Its power-assisted steering improves maneuverability, making it easier to handle in tight spaces, while the differential hydraulic disc brakes provide excellent stopping power. The 16-speed partial power shift transmission offers a wide range of speed settings, facilitating efficient operation across varying field conditions, though it may require a learning curve for optimal gear selection.
