Russian manufacturer Kirovets has unveiled a new generation of K-7 articulated tractors.

The details are limited, but we can reveal that the current two models comprise the K-730 (300hp Yamz engine) and K-740, which is powered by a 400hp Mercedes block. A more powerful 435hp K-743 is in the pipeline.

The update is not limited to the new engine hood styling, and the new K-7s come with a larger and quieter cab, a new automatic transmission and the possibility to fit larger diameter tyres. The standard hydraulic flow is 180lit/min (250lit/min option).

Like all previous versions of the K-7, the new models are made at the St. Petersburg plant.
