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.
