    Tractor of the Year 2025: TotY HighPower – Valtra S416

    The sixth generation of the range is topped out by the S416. It’s powered by an AGCO Power engine offering a rated power of 404hp and maxing out at 425hp, available at 1,950rpm. Torque levels top out 1,750Nm, available

    at 1,500rpm. The engine features single-stage turbocharging, said to add robustness while reducing complexity and it meets Stage V regulations without an EGR, reducing the cooling requirements and therefore the fuel consumption.

    Power is put to the ground via the AGCO-built ML 260 two-range, stepless transmission, with an independent oil supply and a top speed of 53kph.

    The closed centre, load sensing hydraulic system offers 200 litres per minute as standard but can be uprated to a 200+200 litre twin pump feeding a maximum of six rear and three front spools, one of which is a high output valve with a dedicated 170 litres per minute. All the hydraulic valves can be configured through the SmartTouch display.

    The rear linkage has a maximum capacity of 12,000kg, with the option of a 5,800kg front lift.

    As with the rest of the Valtra range built in the Suolahti factory, the new S Series can be put through the Unlimited Studio, providing a range of bespoke options for different operations. This includes the TwinTrac reverse steering system, various cab trims and a central tyre inflation system.

    Other options for municipality and forestry work are also available.
