Zetor Hortus CL 65 – Czech orchard and vineyard tractor: four-cylinder diesel of 2,900 cc, 67 hp and 50 kW, top speed of 32.5 km/h, hydraulic lift capacity of 1,930 kg
Zetor is a Czech tractor maker based in Brno, whose vehicles have counted for decades as standard equipment on medium-sized farms across much of Europe. The Hortus CL 65 carries a name derived from the Latin root 'hortus', meaning garden, already pointing to its use in orchards and vineyards.

The water-cooled four-cylinder diesel engine has a displacement of 2,900 cc and produces 67 hp, or 50 kW, at 2,200 rpm. At 3,865 mm long, 1,620 mm wide, 2,545 mm high, with a 2,188 mm wheelbase and 2,520 kg weight, the CL 65 reaches a design top speed of 32.5 km/h. The hydraulic lift capacity is 1,930 kg.
Tractors for orchard and vineyard work are usually narrower and lower than standard tractors to fit between tight rows of trees or vines, though the CL 65 at 1,620 mm wide is not yet an extreme narrow-track version. The 1,930 kg lift capacity is enough for the sprayers and mulchers typically used in this kind of cultivation.
When buying a Zetor tractor of this class, the condition of the hydraulic pump given the stated lift capacity, the tightness of the cooling system and clutch wear matter most. As Zetor tractors are widespread across much of Europe, sourcing parts for the engine and gearbox is usually straightforward. On versions set up for row-crop work, it is also worth looking over the narrow fenders for paint damage from tight turns between rows.

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.
- 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.
