VALMET 8850 POWER
ENGINE DETAIL
The Valmet 8850 tractor features a robust SisuDiesel 634DS engine, delivering 200 hp (149.1 kW) at a rated RPM of 2200, ideal for demanding agricultural tasks. Its 6-cylinder turbocharged design provides excellent torque and efficiency, beneficial for heavy-duty applications, though it may increase fuel consumption compared to smaller engines. The displacement of 7.4L is advantageous for larger implements, but keep in mind the potential challenge of higher maintenance costs due to the complexity of turbocharged systems.

VALMET 8850 ENGINE
The Valmet 8850 is powered by a robust SisuDiesel 7.4L 6-cylinder engine, providing substantial torque for demanding agricultural tasks. With a fuel tank capacity of 71.3 gallons (269.9 liters), it offers extended operational time, making it suitable for large fields or prolonged work sessions without frequent refueling. However, the heavier weight due to the larger engine and fuel capacity may present challenges in terms of maneuverability and compaction in soft soil conditions.
