The Valtra 8050-4-4X4/256 is a tractor in the tractor category, manufactured from 1999 to 2003. This model belongs to the 8050 series and is positioned as a heavy-duty field tractor with all-wheel drive. The design targets use in conventional crop farming, with the four driven wheels providing high traction performance on various surfaces.
Technically, the tractor is powered by a six-cylinder engine with a displacement of 6,590 cm³, delivering an output of 81 kW. This engine configuration enables the pulling of heavy implements and plows required for soil cultivation on larger areas. The empty weight of 5,000 kg contributes to stability, while the permissible gross weight of 9,000 kg defines the maximum load with ballast or trailer weight. The length of 4,860 mm and the width of 2,170 mm determine the dimensions for transport and maneuverability in the field. With 36 available gears, the transmission offers fine speed gradations, allowing precise adaptation to different working speeds and soil conditions.
Within the series, the 8050-4-4X4/256 occupies a specific position defined by the stated performance and weight data. The combination of 81 kW output and 5,000 kg empty weight classifies it in the segment of medium-heavy to heavy tractors. The 36 gears support versatility when working with various implements. The production period from 1999 to 2003 marks the manufacturing timeframe of this specific model.
Valtra – other models: the collective page of the Finnish tractors outside the named ranges, from the Valmet 600 and 6000 series to A, N, T and S, 10 to 313 kW, Sisu and AGCO Power engines from Linnavuori
This page gathers the Valtra tractors the register could not assign to a named range – the brand from Suolahti in central Finland that, as Valmet with state roots, built the first Finnish tractor in 1951, was renamed Valtra in 1997 after the sale to Sisu and has belonged to AGCO since 2004. The type logic: the Valmet ranges of the 1980s and 1990s – 500, 600, 6000 (Mezzo) and 8000 (Mega) – give the range in the first digit, -4 four-wheel drive and HiTech the equipment with electronic control; since 2000 Valtra has structured the programme in letter ranges, A for the compact class, N for the four-cylinders, T for the six-cylinders and S for the big tractors, with the following number as power class (N174 about 175 hp, T234 about 235 hp) and the suffixes HiTech, Active, Versu and Direct for transmission and equipment. The engines come from the company's own Linnavuori plant – first Valmet, then Sisu, today AGCO Power – three- to six-cylinders of 3.3 to 8.4 litres; the brand is known for the à-la-carte tractor the customer configures at the factory in colour and equipment, and for the forestry and municipal versions with the TwinTrac reverse-drive station.

The register lists here 646 versions with 9.7 to 313 kW from one- to six-cylinders of 400 to 8,419 cm³, unladen weights from 680 to 12,000 kg, gross weights from 1,100 to 16,000 kg, lengths from 2,970 to 6,090 mm and widths from 1,362 to 3,000 mm.
Valtra is market leader in Finland and Scandinavia and one of the big brands in Brazil, where AGCO runs a second Valtra plant; in Central Europe it is the tractor of forestry businesses and municipalities.
On used tractors, operating hours, Sisu engine and injection, HiShift shuttle and powershift (Versu) or stepless transmission (Direct), TwinTrac station, front loader and forestry equipment, rust on cab and mudguards count; parts run through Valtra and AGCO.
