“Developed for farmers by farmers, after seven years of intensive customer consultations and testing, Massey Ferguson first introduced this design on the MF 8S Series, which received a Red Dot Design Award in 2021. Now, the MF 9S Series builds on the design’s success of the Protect-U and cab, delivering performance and an enhanced user experience, along with technology specifically tailored to meet farmers’ different needs,” adds Mr Lhotte.

Six models in the MF 9S Series offer powers from 285hp to 425hp feature Massey Ferguson’s Protect-U engine and cab installation, which delivers excellent visibility and comfort. Key to its success is the unique 18cm gap, that isolates the encapsulated engine from the cab.

The MF 9S Series combines comfort and productivity with optimum connectivity from MF Guide and MF Connect, fitted as standard.
