New Holland T6030 Elite

Last Updated: July 2024

Overview

The New Holland T6030 Elite is a row-crop tractor designed for high-efficiency agriculture tasks. It features a robust four-wheel drive (4WD) chassis system, reinforcing its capability in various terrains and farming operations. Steering is facilitated by a hydrostatic power system, providing ease of maneuverability. The T6030 Elite is powered by a CNH 6-cylinder, 410 cubic inch, liquid-cooled, turbocharged diesel engine with a high pressure common rail (HPCR) fuel system that meets Tier 3 emissions standards. At 2200 RPM, the engine is rated at 102.2 horsepower (non-boosted) with a maximum power output of 138.8 horsepower at 1998 RPM (boosted). For the transmission, the tractor offers an 18-speed partial power shift, promoting efficient field operation. The tractor stands tall with a height of over 112 inches to the cab and approximately 113 inches to the top of the exhaust, indicating its substantial stature. The operating weight of 13,395 pounds underscores a solid and durable construction. Additional features include a 12-volt starting system, pressure lubrication, Akcela Nexplore fluid for transmission, hydraulics, and front axle, maximum torque of 391.2 lb-ft at 1600 RPM (boosted), 28.1% torque rise (boosted), detailed drawbar and PTO performance data, maximum hydraulic force of 7915 lbs, hydraulic pump delivery rates and pressures, and detailed hitch dimensions and lift force data.
