Renault Cergos 340 (1996-2001): water-cooled four-cylinder standard tractor with 62.6 kW output and 297 Nm of torque from the CERGOS series
The Cergos 340 was built between December 1996 and January 2001 as part of the CERGOS series and belonged to the mid-range standard tractors in Renault's 1990s programme.

The water-cooled four-cylinder engine displaces 3,920 cm³ and delivers 62.6 kW at 2,350 rpm, equivalent to 85 horsepower, with 297 Nm of torque. With a weight of 4,255 kg, a wheelbase of 2,590 mm and a top speed of 30 km/h, the Cergos 340 was built for drawbar work in the mid power range.
Four-cylinder engines of nearly four litres displacement and about 85 horsepower formed the backbone of standard tractor fleets on medium-sized arable farms in the 1990s, powerful enough for tillage with towed implements and for driving power-take-off harvesting machinery. The top speed of 30 km/h was within the usual range at the time for road transport between farmyard and field.
When buying a used Cergos 340, the cooling system and turbocharger should be checked for leaks, since these components quickly lose performance if neglected. The hydraulic connections for implements and the condition of the three-point linkage also deserve close inspection, as they suffer heavy wear under intensive agricultural use. A test drive with an implement attached further shows whether the power take-off clutch still engages cleanly and without slipping.

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.
