Arbos unveiled the new 7260 tractor at this week’s show. This new model is part of the P7000 range, which will consist of three models – 220hp, 240hp and 260hp. It is expected that the tractors will be on the market in around 18 months (early 2020).

The new P7000 series tractors will be on the market in early 2020.

The Italian-built tractor is powered by a 260hp six-cylinder NEF FPT Stage 5 engine and is equipped with a powershift transmission (60+15). This transmission, along with the axles, are built by Arbos themselves.

Weighing in at 8.5t, the new tractor has a lift capacity of 10.5t. It has a hydraulic flow rate of 160l/min.

Previous to the P7000 series, the largest tractor in the company’s offering was a 136hp in the P5000 series.

Arbos is currently in the testing stages of developing a new P6000 series, which will bridge the gap between the existing P5000 series and the upcoming P7000 series ranges.

The P7000 range is set to consist of three models (220hp, 240hp and 260hp).

Although being a relatively unknown brand in Ireland, a spokesperson from Arbos informed the Irish Farmers Journal that the company is in talks with a dealer “close to Dublin” who is interested in importing and distributing Arbos tractors in Ireland.
