New Massey Ferguson combines power and manoeuvrability

Dubbed the world’s most powerful four cylinder tractor, it brings bolstered power and manoeuvrability to Australia and New Zealand.

Aside from its power, a 2.67m wheelbase and a turning radius of just 4.75m also makes the series able to handle tough field work while capable of operating in the tightest of compact environments.

The 6700 S Series is a versatile machine capable of heavy duty applications out in the paddock as well as efficient loader work.

It provides the strength, hydraulic power, lift capacity and operator comfort for a wide variety of tasks in any farming operation.

“Massey Ferguson invented the concept of the high power, four-cylinder tractor, with the original MF 6600 breaking new ground and creating a completely new class of 150hp+ tractors,” Massey Ferguson marketing director Fergal Meehan said.

Now, with the ‘S effect’ we are further advancing performance in this sector up to 200hp on the MF 6718 S.

“The advanced engine develops its maximum power at just 2,000rpm and generates maximum torque at 1,500rpm, which means it delivers exceptional fuel economy combined with superb pulling power and with plenty in reserve. 

“This provides users with the operating benefits associated with larger, longer and heavier six cylinder tractors, but in a compact and extremely light machine.”
