The water-cooled four-cylinder engine displaces 3,192 cm³ and delivers 55.2 kW at 2,300 rpm, equivalent to 75 horsepower. The engine is approved for both diesel fuel and biodiesel. With a weight of 3,970 kg, a wheelbase of 2,419 mm and a top speed of 30 km/h, the Agrotron 80 was built for versatile field and transport work.
Approval for biodiesel widened fuel choice in the early 2000s for farmers increasingly interested in plant-oil-based alternatives to fossil diesel. At nearly 4 tonnes for only 75 horsepower, the Agrotron 80 is comparatively heavy for its power class, pointing to a rugged design built for continuous duty.
When buying a used Agrotron 80, the fuel system should be checked for signs of biodiesel use, particularly seals and fuel lines, which age differently under biodiesel than under fossil diesel. The braking system and rear axle also deserve a thorough check for wear given the tractor's high weight. It is also worth examining the sidewalls of the large rear tyres for cracking, since they carry heavy loads on a tractor of this weight and are easy to overlook during a quick viewing.
