Yanmar is preparing to strengthen its position in the 100hp+ segment with the new YT6 range from 130-143hp.
The Japanese company can no longer be considered just a compact and utility tractor manufacturer. Following the recent launch of the YT4 (88-104hp) and YT5 (114hp), the YT6 takes it even higher up the power scales.
Full details of the three models (YT6130 (130hp), YT6135 (132hp) and YT6145 (143hp) are under wraps until the official launch in December, but we can reveal that the 3.8-litre four-cylinder engine develops its full power at 2,200rpm. Depending on model, the top speed of the hydro-mechanical CVT is from 34km/hr to 40km/hr.
Hydraulic flow is up to 100l/min. Maximum rear lift capacity is 6.2t for the YT6130 and 5.3t for the YT6135 and YT6145. There are three pto seeds; 540, 540E and 1,000rpm. The seat in the air-suspended four post cab rotates 10° left and right.
