The Sisu TR-161AL is a heavy tractor belonging to the group of agricultural tractors. The model was manufactured in 1999 and is positioned as a powerful workhorse for demanding field operations. As a representative of the Sisu brand, this tractor features the typical design of Finnish agricultural machinery, which is engineered for high stability and load-bearing capacity when equipped with heavy implements.
The machine is powered by a six-cylinder engine with a displacement of 7,080 cm³, delivering an output of 180 kW. This engine configuration enables the pulling of large plows or heavy seeders without the engine reaching its performance limits. The curb weight of 9,300 kg ensures good traction, while the gross vehicle weight rating of 41,000 kg underscores the high load capacity of the axles and frame. With four gears, the transmission gearing is designed for operation in the medium to high load range, ensuring constant speed under heavy draft loads. The dimensions of 4,970 mm in length and 2,500 mm in width require appropriate caution during road travel and in the field, but provide the necessary stability for heavy implements.
Within the Sisu tractor series, the TR-161AL occupies a position in the upper performance range. It is particularly suitable for farms that regularly operate with large working widths and heavy equipment. The combination of high weight and strong engine output makes it a suitable towing vehicle for soil cultivation and the transport of heavy loads in everyday agricultural operations.

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.
