VALTRA S353 POWER

Engine 365hp / 272.2kW

ENGINE DETAIL

The Valtra S353 tractor is powered by a robust SisuDiesel 84 AWI-4V turbocharged intercooled engine, offering 365 hp and a substantial torque of 1135 lb-ft at 1400 RPM, making it ideal for heavy-duty agricultural tasks. Its 8.4L displacement and Stage 3B emissions compliance provide a balance of performance and environmental regulations, although operators should be mindful of emissions standards in various jurisdictions. An electric starter enhances reliability, while the tractor's considerable torque ensures efficient power delivery during demanding operations, but the large engine size may present challenges for maneuverability in tight spaces.

VALTRA S353 ENGINE

The Valtra S353 is powered by a robust SisuDiesel 8.4L 6-cylinder engine, providing high torque output for heavy-duty applications. Its substantial fuel tank capacity of 161.1 gallons ensures extended operation times, making it suitable for long working days in the field. However, the need for a separate 15.9-gallon diesel exhaust fluid (DEF) tank may present a logistical challenge in maintaining adequate fluid levels for emissions compliance.

Fuel tank 161.1gal / 609.8L
Exhaust fluid (DEF) 15.9gal / 60.2L

TRANSMISSION

The Valtra S353 features a continuously-variable transmission (CVT), providing seamless power management and optimal fuel efficiency through infinite gear ratios for both forward and reverse operations. This system allows for precise speed adjustments, enhancing traction and reducing engine stress under varying load conditions. However, CVT maintenance can be more complex and expensive compared to traditional transmissions, so regular monitoring is crucial for long-term performance.

Type continuously-variable transmission
Gears infinite forward and reverse

MECHANICAL

The Valtra S353 features a robust 4x4 MFWD chassis, enhancing traction and stability, particularly on uneven terrain or during heavy pulling operations. Its continuously-variable transmission (CVT) offers seamless power delivery and efficiency, allowing optimal engine performance across varying speeds. However, the hydraulic wet disc brakes, while effective for heavy loads, require regular maintenance to ensure consistent performance in tough conditions.

VALTRA S353 TIRES

The Valtra S353 tractor features substantial standard agricultural tires, with a front size of 620/65R34 and a rear size of 710/75R42, optimizing traction and stability for heavy-duty tasks. The larger rear tires enhance load distribution and improve soil compaction management, making it well-suited for tillage and transportation scenarios. However, the increased dimensions may pose challenges in tight spaces or on narrow paths, necessitating careful maneuverability planning.

DIMENSIONS & TIRES

The Valtra S353 tractor features a substantial wheelbase of 122.2 inches (310 cm), enhancing stability and traction during heavy-load operations. Weighing 22,708 lbs (10,300 kg) contributes to ground adherence, especially beneficial in challenging terrains. However, the large tire sizes (620/65R34 front and 710/75R42 rear) may limit maneuverability in confined spaces, making it more suitable for open-field applications rather than tight farm operations.
