REDESIGNED PUMA AFS CONNECT CVXDRIVE & MULTICONTROLLER COMES TO ASHBROOK TRACTOR HIRE

New for 2024, ASHBROOK tractor hire is boasting a supply of the redesigned Puma AFS Connect CVXDrive 200-260 and Multicontroller 185 powershift long wheelbase tractors.  This is the most significant revision of the Puma range for the last 15 years and early release models have gone down well.

They feature a larger, quieter cab, customisable functions, integral AFS Connect telematics, more power, and a bigger footprint.

CASE IH cab enhancements

The popular front-end shaping with enhanced lighting has been around for several years now and features in the new cab design.  The new styling provides 8% more space and 11% more glass for enhanced vision and safety.  The impact of greater cab volume is more head and leg room and additional storage for the operator.

Another welcome improvement is an internal noise reduction of 66 decibels, making this one of the quietest cabs on the market.

Power and efficiency for the long wheelbase CASE IH tractors

This redesign boasts up to 11% more power, 15% more fuel tank volume, and 18% more contact area from larger tyre options.

Stage V 6.7-litre FPT NEF six-cylinder engines in Puma AFS Connect tractors produce a maximum 1,250Nm torque at 1,500rpm on the largest model, with up to 11% more power across the range.  On CVX models, larger, stronger axles permit a gross vehicle weight of up to 15,000kg and allow fitment of up to 2.05m rear tyres (710/70 R42), increasing the footprint by up to 18% for more traction and flotation.   In addition, greater efficiency comes from a 15% larger fuel tank which holds 470 litres of diesel and 54 litres of DEF, for up to three hours’ extra work.
