2011: Two Fastrac 8000 Series tractors launched featuring an 8.4-litre AGCO Power (Sisu) engine with SCR emissions control – 279hp for the 8280 and 306hp for the 8310.
2011: Fastrac 3000 Xtra introduced with the P-Tronic 24×9 semi-powershift transmission, Xtra-Drive brake pedal stop-start and new 7.4-litre AGCO Power (Sisu) engine with SCR emissions control – 147hp and 172hp for the 3200 Xtra, 172hp and 201hp for the 3230 Xtra.
Major power-train changes came with the 2011 launch of the Fastrac 3000 Xtra tractors, which introduced JCB's P-Tronic (24F 9R) semi-powershift transmission (with six powershift steps).
An Xtra-Drive feature enabled operators to bring the tractor to a halt and move off again, using only the brake pedal.
Complying with more stringent Euro Stage 3B emissions requirements, the tractors switched to a new AGCO Power 7.4L engine (using SCR to clean up the exhaust gases). Electronic engine management brought with it a selectable transport power boost.
This gave the Fastrac 3200 Xtra driver a choice of 190hp or 220hp outputs, while the 3230 Xtra provided 230hp or 260hp.
The lower figure was for field work and when travelling light on the road. The higher figure was meant for "outright performance" – during heavy towing at speed.
