FARMTRAC’S ALL-ELECTRIC FT25G
The FT25G, the world’s first commercial all-electric compact tractor, is critically acclaimed for bringing zero emissions, minimal noise and vibration, high energy efficiency, and low operating and maintenance costs to the UK’s farming sector.
It has led the way with the growing industry focus on moving away from fossil fuels to low or zero emission products since it launched two years ago and in that time has proven itself as more than capable of equalling the performance of its
diesel counterparts, something Fully Charged’s presenter Robert Llewellyn and farmer Adam Henson discovered when they reviewed it and put it through its paces around the farm and in a Top Gear-style Battle of the Tractors for BBC’s Countryfile and Fully Charged TV.
It is powered by a 22hp engine, has a lift capacity of 450kg and boasts world class components including transmissions designed and produced by Carraro and hydraulic systems from MITA, to deliver a superior performance whatever the task.
