Tractors: High horsepower, 4WD – T9 with SmartTrax, New Holland
The T9 4WD tractor with tracks from New Holland takes the FinOvation honors in the high-horsepower 4WD category. The new SnartTrax option consists of four belted rubber tracks designed to reduce soil compaction and slippage created by these 600-plus-hp tractor. They also can provide a ride over bumps that is smoother than that of wheel tractors. While the tractor is premium-priced offering, its tracks have features to balance out the cost. One of those is its single-wheel design, which allows you to bolt the tracks onto the same axle as the tires. This design allows you to switch out wheels for tracks, depending on field conditions.
