Introduction
Challenger MT455D Utility Tractor
The Challenger MT455D is a utility tractor produced between 2014 and 2016. Part of the AGCO brand portfolio, this model is designed for versatile agricultural operations, balancing power and maneuverability within a standard-cab configuration.
Engine and Performance
The tractor is powered by an AGCO Power 49AWI engine, a 4.9-liter, 4-cylinder, 16-valve turbocharged diesel unit featuring air-to-air intercooling. It generates a gross power output of 110 hp (82.0 kW) at a rated speed of 2200 RPM. The fuel system utilizes electronic high-pressure common rail technology, and the engine meets Interim Tier IV emission standards through Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR).
Transmission and Drivetrain
Equipped with the AutoPower IV transmission, the MT455D provides 16 forward and 16 reverse gears. This system incorporates a four-speed power shift across four ranges, managed by a wet disc clutch. The tractor features a four-wheel-drive system, hydrostatic power steering, and wet disc brakes to ensure traction and control during heavy field work.
Hydraulics and Hitch
The hydraulic system is a closed-center load-sensing (CCLS) type, delivering a flow of 29 gpm (109.8 lpm), with an open-center option available. It supports two to four valves for implement control. The rear hitch is a Category III/II system featuring electronic lower link draft sensing, providing a lift capacity of 11,400 lbs (5,171 kg) at 24 inches behind the lift point.
Dimensions and PTO
The MT455D sits on a 105-inch wheelbase and has a shipping weight of 11,900 lbs. It is equipped with an independent rear PTO capable of operating at 540 or 1000 RPM, allowing for broad compatibility with various rear-mounted implements.
Conclusion
The Challenger MT455D is a well-balanced utility tractor suited for medium-to-heavy agricultural tasks. Its combination of a high-capacity CCLS hydraulic system, electronic draft sensing, and powershift transmission makes it a reliable choice for farmers requiring consistent performance and operator comfort.
