Challenger MT525E

Last Updated: September 2024

Overview

The Challenger MT525E is a powerful tractor built for tough farm work. It has a strong engine made by AGCO Power that runs on diesel fuel. This engine has 6 cylinders and can produce up to 142.0 horsepower. The tractor uses a special system called selective catalytic reduction (SCR) to keep its emissions low and meet Tier IV standards.

One of the best things about the MT525E is its TechStar Continuously Variable Transmission (CVT). This means it can change speeds smoothly without shifting gears. The tractor can go forward in 16 different ways and backward as much as you need. It's also good at lifting heavy things, with a rear hitch that can handle up to 11,750 pounds. The hydraulic system is strong too, pumping 29.6 gallons of fluid per minute at high pressure. This helps run tools and equipment attached to the tractor.
