Mahindra & Mahindra has launched the 275 DI TU PP tractor in Uttar Pradesh, Madhya Pradesh and Rajasthan. This tractor has been developed to meet the growing demand for high-capacity and powerful tractors for farmers.

Set to redefine efficiency and performance for farmers across the states, the 275 DI TU PP tractor is equipped with a robust three-cylinder ‘mZIP’ diesel engine of 2,760 cc. Producing a peak torque of 180 Nm other than a 25 percent back up torque, the tractor is engineered to provide superior pulling power under the scope of demanding farm tasks.

The key highlight of the 275 DI TU PP tractor is the long service interval of 400 hours, which significantly reduces the downtime and maintenance costs. The 35.5 hp PTO (Power Take-Off) of the machine is complemented by its superior mileage through a series of technological advancements.

The transmission, for example, is a Partial Constant Mesh (PCM) system that features eight forward and two reverse gears. The advanced transmission tech ensures smoother operation and greater versatility in the field, allowing for easy manoeuvring and adaptability to various farming tasks.

The hydraulics offer a lifting capacity of 1,500 kg and the factory-fitted bumper and tow hook add to the durability and functionality of the tractor.
