All-Electric Farmall Offers Autonomous Capabilities
 |
The versatile Farmall Utility 75C features a 74-hp. continuous duty, zero emission motor, which provides 65 pto hp. It offers 4-WD and a fully electric drivetrain and comes equipped with a 2-speed pto, 3-pt. hitch, drawbar, and multiple rear remotes.
A fully integrated battery delivers 110-kWh maximum energy storage capacity enabling the electric motor to run at 94 percent efficiency.
A 12 by 12 upgraded transmission sports an electronic clutch-less power shuttle to improve directional changes.
“The drivability is fantastic,” says Jeff Akel, Case IH Global Marketer. “There’s instant acceleration and torque throughout the entire speed range. It’s also noticeably different than a diesel tractor being extremely quiet.”
The Farmall 75C claims a 4-hr. run time before charging is needed. Three recharging options are available, including standard AC, Economy Fast DC, which uses the existing electric grid, and a Premium Fast DC charger, which can recharge from 10 to 80 percent in under an hour.
A portable generator capability is also available, delivering power through 110 and 220-volt electrical outlets.
Unique features have been added to the tractor, including:
Row Follow: Onboard cameras use vision technology to precisely follow field rows.
Follow-Me Mode: The tractor drives or reverses following the operator outside the cab.
Safe Mode: Alert and shut down feature activates when a person steps into the tractor’s working environment.
Invisible Bucket: Console screen displays a clear view of obstacles in front of the bucket for safe operation in tight spaces.
The Farmall 75C will be available early in 2024.
