Challenger MT738

Last Updated: September 2024

Overview

The Challenger MT738 is a powerful tracked tractor built for heavy-duty farm work. It has a strong AGCO Power engine with 7 cylinders and 324.64 hp. This engine is cooled by liquid and uses two turbochargers to boost its power. The tractor runs on diesel fuel and has a special system to clean its exhaust.

One of the best things about the MT738 is its CVT transmission. This means it can change speeds smoothly without shifting gears. It can go forward and backward at many different speeds. The tractor is very heavy, weighing 36,050 lb, which helps it pull big loads. It has a three-point hitch at the back for attaching tools. The hydraulic system is strong and can lift heavy equipment. The MT738 also has a good fuel efficiency, using about 17 gallons per hour when working hard.

This tractor is designed for comfort too. It's pretty quiet, with a sound level of 68.1 dB when not working. The tracks can be adjusted to fit different row widths, from 88 inches to 119.5 inches. In tests, the MT738 showed it could pull very heavy loads and work for a long time without problems. It's a great choice for farmers who need a strong, reliable tractor for big fields and tough jobs.
