The Challenger MT225 is a compact utility tractor designed for small farms and light-duty work. It features a 4-wheel drive system and power steering, making it easy to handle in tight spaces. The tractor is powered by a small 3-cylinder diesel engine made by Iseki, which runs at a very high 2800 rpm. While the engine's 23.3 horsepower is below average for its class, it's suitable for basic tasks around the farm.
This tractor uses a hydrostatic transmission, which allows for smooth speed changes without shifting gears. It has infinite forward and reverse speeds in two ranges, giving the operator good control. The MT225 is quite small, measuring 105.4 inches long, 41 inches wide, and 75.2 inches tall. It's very light for a tractor, weighing only 1672 pounds. The tractor has a Category I rear hitch that can lift up to 694 pounds, which is below average but useful for small implements. It also has an open center hydraulic system and an open operator station, which means no cab for the driver.
