The first SRX model, articulated and reversible in the 5800 (52 hp) and 6800 (66 hp) versions made its debut at the Eima Digital Preview 2020/21 (November 2020) and was well-received by the jury for the Technical News Competition 2021 which recognised it for having kept its dimensions in line with previous models as well as for its high-performance hydraulic circuit, reversible drive and the possibility of being fitted with a cab.

The compactness of the new SRX Tora Series provides excellent handling with its tight steering and articulated chassis. Another important characteristic and a new feature for this power range is the mechanical transmission with 16 forward and reverse speeds with a synchronized inverter. The reversible drive amplifies its usage, rendering the tractor ideal for vineyards, orchards, nurseries, city centres, crops in greenhouses, particularly fruits of the forest and is fitted with all those features that up till now have been reserved for the AC top range models. Furthermore, the SRX is a particularly narrow tractor (external width up to 99 cm) with a short wheelbase that is extremely agile in narrow spaces. The overhang engine, thanks to the ACTIO™ chassis and the integral traction on four equal-sized wheels guarantee stability in all conditions allowing it to operate safely on slopes with constant traction. The independent PTO set at 540/540E is fitted with Plus and Normal engagement, selected by cluster. The load-sensing hydraulic system, with a 51 l/min oil pump is fitted with five double effect distributers which allow for the tractor to be fitted with various pieces of trailing or push-along equipment, ideal for complete management of inter-row and under-foliage tasks. The rear powerlift has a lifting capacity of around 2200 Kg on the bearings, ideal in combination with seeders used also for green manure activities.

On request, the new Tora Series tractors can be fitted with the new multi-control device, the Hydraulic Remote Control for the complete management of the equipment, front powerlift with adjustable lifting arms and quick release catches.

On request, the new specialized Tora can come with a joystick and a mechanical draft and position control lift, as well as the REDCab, which is soundproofed, fitted with an air-conditioning system and is enhanced with many high level optional extras. The wide windscreen guarantees the operator excellent visibility in all directions, privileging visibility over the equipment and the space around the tractor, which can be appreciated above all in reverse drive when operating amongst very narrow-rowed crops. The LED work headlights also guarantee the right illumination at night and in dark places. The RedCab has a streamlined design and a conical shape to assist the tractor’s disengagement amongst rowed crops, even on lateral slopes. In the articulated version of the REDCab has 4 uprights and full glass doors and a wider opening. Access aboard the tractor and rear visibility are the main strong points of this solution.
