Kharkov T series: tractors from the Kharkiv Tractor Plant (KhTZ) in Ukraine, from the T-90 to the T-150K, 90 to 175 hp, four- and six-cylinder diesel engines

The Kharkiv Tractor Plant (KhTZ) in Ukraine was one of the major tractor manufacturers of the Soviet Union, supplying agriculture and industry across the entire Eastern Bloc. This page collects the plant's T series, from the T-90 to the T-150K; the attached numbers rank the models by size, and the K in T-150K denotes the wheeled version as opposed to the tracked one.

The register lists 2 versions from 90 to 175 hp from four- and six-cylinder diesel engines of up to 9,160 cm³ displacement and 721 Nm of torque at 2,000 rpm. Kerb weights range from 4,500 to 7,910 kg, lengths from 3,970 to 5,795 mm, widths from 2,000 to 2,300 mm and heights from 2,315 to 3,156 mm.

Tractors of this size class handled basic tillage and transport across the large fields of Soviet collective and state farms, and were also exported to numerous countries of the former Eastern Bloc as well as to Africa and Asia. Their rugged, easily maintained engineering made them workhorses that in some cases stayed in service for decades.

When buying a used example, check the condition of injection pump and starter, the tightness of the axle drives, wear on clutch and gearbox, and corrosion on frame and cab; spare parts are available through Eastern European specialist dealers and importers, though original parts from current production have become scarce.

What to check before buying

  • Check the hour meter against the service records — a replaced instrument is the most common gap.
  • Compare the data plate and chassis number with the papers.
  • Check the weights in the papers against the figures here — attachments change them.
  • Check front and rear tyre sizes: mismatched pairs strain the drivetrain.
  • Shift the gearbox cold and warm — jumps only show up at temperature.
  • Load the hydraulics and watch for sag.
  • Ask about parts availability for this build year — the running costs hang on it.
