FARMTRAC, a leading tractor brand, today
announced the launch of two new tractor models, 6060 and 6065 – India’s first
‘Executive’ Tractors. Available in 60HP and 65HP, these tractors are designed
to cater to the progressive new- age Indian farmer, who are smart, educated,
have an entrepreneurial bent of mind, and have adopted farming as a business of
their choice.
These ‘executive’ farmers are exposed to
innovative technologies and modern farm practices. They cultivate more acres
and raise more crops every year. They need modern and efficient products that
can speed and ease operations, reduce dependency on labor, and at the same time
save cost both in terms of time and money. With an unmatched combination of
power and efficiency, the new Farmtrac 6060 and 6065 helps these farmers
produce more, earn more and save more.
Both Farmtrac 6060 and 6065 come with a new
four-cylinder turbocharged, intercooled engine that delivers higher torque to
run larger implements and pull heavier loads. The tractors are offered in two
transmission options – a modern 24-speed Syncroshuttle Gearbox providing
versatility to do multiple tasks – and, a heavy-duty 8+2 speed Epicyclic
transmission delivering high reliability in toughest of conditions.
Furthermore, the tractors are equipped with the latest 4-wheel drive technology
which ensures full utilization of engine power allowing these tractors to
perform bigger tasks in the least time. These new tractors provide for an
in-line fuel injection pump, which unlike the rotary pumps used by the
competition, stays unaffected by adulterated fuel and is the preferred customer
choice.
Speaking at the launch,
Mr. Shenu Agarwal, Head of Marketing, Escorts Agri Machinery said, “Over the past six decades, Escorts in its own way, has been a part
of the dynamic process which ushered in farm mechanization and brought

6065, built on Farmtrac’s well-proven design and technology, stand for powerful
performance and unmatched efficiency. We believe these robust workhorses will
help increase farm yield, productivity and will in turn boost farm income.”
Says Mr. Sameer Tandon,

offerings, Farmtrac plans to establish itself as the leader in the premium
tractor segment. The company is looking at introducing new variants and
