JCB Fastrac 4220, JCB Fastrac 3230 Xtra, JCB Fastrac 8330

Major power-train changes came with the 2011 launch of the Fastrac 3000 Xtra tractors, which introduced JCB's P-Tronic (24F 9R) semi-powershift transmission (with six powershift steps).

An Xtra-Drive feature enabled operators to bring the tractor to a halt and move off again, using only the brake pedal.

Complying with more stringent Euro Stage 3B emissions requirements, the tractors switched to a new AGCO Power 7.4L engine (using SCR to clean up the exhaust gases). Electronic engine management brought with it a selectable transport power boost.

This gave the Fastrac 3200 Xtra driver a choice of 190hp or 220hp outputs, while the 3230 Xtra provided 230hp or 260hp.

The lower figure was for field work and when travelling light on the road. The higher figure was meant for "outright performance" – during heavy towing at speed.

Last 3000 Series Fastrac rolls off JCB production line

JCB engineering and assembly teams are now celebrating the contribution made to farming by the Fastrac 3000 Series tractor over the past 20 years.

When introduced in 1998, the 150hp Fastrac 3155 and 170hp 3185 followed in the footsteps of their 100 Series predecessors – in establishing the JCB Fastrac as a “unique machine” on farms dotted about the world.

Subsequent models brought increased power and a new JCB semi-powershift transmission. They also added anti-lock braking and a transport power boost.

These have brought CVT transmissions, all-new cabs, integrated guidance and ISOBUS-compatible electronics to the Fastrac family.

Interestingly, the final Fastrac 3230 Xtra off the assembly line is destined for a customer in Australia, where it will undertake fertiliser application and other spreading duties.
