New styling, comfort and efficiency upgrades are all part of the new Massey Ferguson 8S Xtra Series
Building on the success of the multi-award-winning MF 8S models, the 8S Xtra lineup features six models from 205hp to 305hp, with Engine Power Management intelligently boosting power by up to 20hp.
Impressive productivity is combined with top-notch reliability for maximum uptime, and a low total cost of ownership ensures the best return on investment.
“Demand for tractors in the 200-300hp segment is strong and user expectations are high,” says Anthony Morgan, product marketing manager, HHP Massey Ferguson ANZ.
“While updating this series, Massey Ferguson consulted new and existing customers as well as dealers to ensure it has the capability to not only satisfy, but also to exceed the requirements of farmers and contractors worldwide.
“With the MF 8S Xtra, owners are getting more than just a tractor; this is a dependable and reliable partner with a specification and the latest technology to suit their modern agricultural needs.”
A step-up in performance
Since the MF 8S was introduced in 2020, continuous improvements have been made and new options increasing operator comfort, working efficiency and productivity have been added. In the cab, these include a Dual-Motion seat option, electrically adjusted external rear-view mirrors, a rear window demister and a revised microphone position.
MF Technology upgrades include MF AutoTurn, MF Section Control for automatic control of up to 96 sections and AEF Isobus certification. A Central Tyre Inflation System is available through MF By You, maximising traction for increased productivity while also protecting soils and reducing fuel consumption.
An enhanced service and warranty package protects the investment and reduces costs of ownership, more important now than ever before in today’s challenging financial climate.
