Massey Ferguson, a global brand of AGCO, introduces a completely new series of MF 8S tractors.

- Our visionary concept of MF NEXT, presented for the first time at Agritechnica in 2019, has now become a reality

Says Thierry Lhotte, vice president and managing director, Massey Ferguson Europe and Middle East.

Last November, we celebrated the 50th anniversary of the Moon landing, which made the impossible possible. Now is the time for this vision to "land" on Earth. We are not only launching a new tractor, but also marking a new era for our brand.

Four brand new models of the MF 8S series are launched, all featuring the unique 'Protect-U' cab / engine installation and radical 'neo-retro' design. Built on a 3.05m wheelbase, they offer maximum power from 205 to 265hp, and generate up to 20hp more thanks to Engine Power Management (EPM).

At the same time, Massey Ferguson is introducing new, simple numbering. Take the MF 8S.265 model for example: 8 stands for series, S stands for specification level and the last three numbers are maximum power without EPM (boost).

The launch of the MF 8S series heralds a whole new era for Massey Ferguson by introducing user enhancements including the benefits of networking and precision farming technology.

To meet the demands of modern, sustainable agriculture, Massey Ferguson combines cutting-edge machinery with a wide range of fully connected services to help customers manage their operations more efficiently.

Financing, extended warranty and replacement machines can be fully integrated into the package. With MF Connect Telemetry and the new MyMF customer portal (country-dependent), users can manage their fleets with cloud-based MF solutions.

"This completely new design allows us to take the simple and reliable tractors requested by the operators to a new level," says Lhotte. “They told us they needed a tractor that is comfortable, with unmatched visibility, efficient, easy to operate and intelligent. Massey Ferguson responded immediately by offering the MF 8S and related services.
