AGCO believes recent test results from Nebraska confirm that the company’s new line of 205 to 275 PTO horsepower row crop tractors introduced in 2009 offers the greatest fuel efficiency among tractors of this category on the market. This includes the Challenger MT600C Series, Massey Ferguson 8600 Series and the AGCO DT Series machines powered by the AGCO SISU POWER 8.4 L engine with e3 selective catalytic reduction (SCR) clean-air technology and featuring AGCO’s heavy-duty continuously variable transmission (CVT) with industry-exclusive Dynamic Tractor Management (DTM).
Key to the fuel efficiency standards of these tractors are the AGCO SISU power diesel engines. The company says these engines are focused on producing power and torque efficiently, and not dealing with emissions. Instead, a pump and injection system meets environmental standard by cleaning emissions out of the exhaust by continuously varying the amount of DEF (Diesel Exhaust Fluid) added to the exhaust steam.
