International Tractors Limited, India's No. 1 export brand and one of the country's leading tractor manufacturers, has expanded its footprint under the Solis Yanmar brand portfolio with the launch of its new YM3 tractor series. Solis Yanmar, also known as the "Global 4WD Drive Experts," has released two new tractors, the YM 342A and YM 348A, that are fully adjusted to give increased productivity and unmatched performance.
The new YM3 series is perfectly adapted to Indian farmer requirements and robustly engineered for Indian circumstances, thanks to Yanmar's 110-year diesel engine expertise. The YM3 tractor series includes fully sealed tractors with premium features such as a world-class engine, fully synchromesh gear, push-button operated PTO, and optimal weight to meet farmers' agricultural and specific application needs.
The YM3 tractor range was already a global success when it was launched in India, having been shipped to Thailand, Southeast Asian countries, Europe, Brazil, and the United States. For farmer comfort, the Yanmar YM3 series has an aerodynamic hornet design with an ergonomically designed 4-way adjustable seat and power steering. The famed Japanese Engine Technology, which has been improved to provide the highest performance, is at the heart of the tractor. A 4-cylinder engine with Monoplunger FIP and a feather touch 8F + 8R shuttle shift transmission, along with balancer shafts, provide exceptional performance by reducing noise and vibration.
"Introducing premium technologies that drive farmers towards a prosperous future remains sacrosanct for us at Solis Yanmar," Raman Mittal, Joint Managing Director - ITL, said during the new launch. We are currently launching the Yanmar tractor range with the YM3 tractor 4WD series, which is a clear manifestation of advanced Japanese engineering, following the fantastic reaction to our Solis range of tractors since its premiere in 2019. The tractors are equipped with Yanmar's world-class Supernova engine, a 110-year-old Japanese diesel engine behemoth. In addition, the YM3 series tractors are loaded with high-end features that deliver exceptional performance and safety without sacrificing the farmer's comfort. Our experts ensured that the YM series tractors produce minimal noise and vibration, allowing for long, fatigue-free working hours in a variety of applications. Solis Yanmar will continue to develop new tractor models to meet the needs of farmers in various applications."
"Since the founding of Yanmar Holdings, we have always focused on giving solutions for the development of the globe," said Akihiko Hiraoka, Chief Marketing Officer, Yanmar Holdings Co. Ltd. As a proud partner of Solis (ITL), we will undoubtedly alter the agriculture sector globally. We are pleased to announce the YM3 series of tractors, which are specifically developed for Indian soil. The YM3 series tractors, which were developed with input from both the Solis (ITL) and Yanmar teams, will be produced at ITL's world-leading tractor manufacturing factory in Hoshiarpur, Punjab. Yanmar and Solis (ITL) have pledged to serve the Indian farming community and meet their diverse farming requirements with the YM3 series tractor."
