Valtra N range – the four-cylinder mid-range from Suolahti: N93 to N174, power class in the type number, 73 to 148 kW, displacement of 3,300 to 4,900 cm³, Sisu engines
Since 2000 the N range has been Valtra's four-cylinder mid-range, the Finnish maker from Suolahti that emerged in 1997 from the sale of Valmet to Sisu and has belonged to AGCO since 2004. The type logic orders the letters A, N, T and S by cylinder count and size – A the compact class, N the four-cylinders, T the six-cylinders, S the big tractors – the following number roughly gives the power class in hp, so N174 stands for about 175 hp and N93 for about 95 hp. The engines come from the company's own Linnavuori plant, which traded under the Sisu name before it merged into AGCO Power in 2004; the suffixes HiTech, Active, Versu and Direct mark transmission and equipment steps.

The register lists here 6 versions with 73 to 148 kW (99 to 165 hp) from three- to four-cylinders of 3,300 to 4,900 cm³, torque from 430 to 540 Nm at about 2,200 rpm, unladen weights from 4,700 to 6,300 kg, lengths from 4,329 to 4,664 mm, widths from 2,277 to 2,550 mm and heights from 2,825 to 2,960 mm.
The N range is Valtra's bread-and-butter tractor for the mixed arable and grassland farms of Central and Northern Europe and an important model in Scandinavia and Brazil, where AGCO runs a second Valtra plant; it competes with the four-cylinder mid-ranges of John Deere, Case IH and Massey Ferguson.
On used tractors, operating hours, the condition of the Sisu engine and injection, shuttle transmission and powershift steps (Versu) or stepless transmission (Direct), hydraulic output, front-loader mounting and rust on cab and mudguards count; parts run through Valtra and AGCO.

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.
