SAME Diamond – the large six-cylinder range from Treviglio: Diamond 230 and Diamond 270, 179 to 198 kW, or 244 to 269 hp, 7,146 cm³ displacement, unladen weight 9,430 kg, length 5,268 mm
The Diamond represents the top power class of the SAME brand in the register: the Diamond 230 and Diamond 270 are six-cylinder tractors whose model name, as usual at SAME, states the approximate hp class. They are built at the parent plant in Treviglio near Bergamo, home of the brand founded in 1942 by Francesco Cassani and today part of the SAME Deutz-Fahr group.

The register lists here 2 versions with 179 to 198 kW, or 244 to 269 hp, from a six-cylinder of 7,146 cm³ at 2,300 to 2,350 revolutions per minute. Unladen weight is 9,430 kg, length 5,268 mm, width 2,750 mm and height 3,270 mm.
At almost 9.4 tonnes unladen and up to 269 hp, the Diamond is among the largest conventional four-wheel tractors SAME offers; such machines are mainly used with heavy tillage equipment, for transporting large trailer loads and for driving powerful mounted implements on big farms.
On a used Diamond, operating hours and the condition of the turbocharged six-cylinder, tightness and function of the powershift stages, the state of the axles and tyres given the high weight, and corrosion on cab and mudguards matter; parts run through the SAME Deutz-Fahr group network.
The Diamond remains part of the active SAME Deutz-Fahr group today, securing long-term parts supply even for this upper power class. The three-point linkage at this weight class follows the upper ISO 730 category for heavy tractors.

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.
- Load the hydraulics and watch for sag.
- Ask about parts availability for this build year — the running costs hang on it.
