AGCO’s winning trifecta
Back in the 1970s Meatloaf sang "two out of three aint bad", but AGCO has gone one further at the recent Agritechnica exhibition in Germany.
Case IH says the Magnum 380 CVT won the title thanks to features such as continuously variable transmission (known as CVX in Europe), multi-controller armrest, new LED lighting and its Rowtrac combination of rear tracks and low pressure front tyres. This gives greater traction with minimal soil disturbance compared to standard single-track machines.
“We are honoured to have received the Tractor of the Year 2015 award,” said Matthew Foster, vice president Case IH EMEA (Europe, Africa and the Middle East) at the awards ceremony. “27 years of Magnum tractors means 27 years of approval by the toughest group of testers you can get: farmers in their daily work.”
Launched in 1987, the Magnum has had many improvements to increase performance and productivity, cut fuel consumption and emissions and improve operator comfort.
