JCB ups Loadall power and expands transmission options >More in
JCB has updated its series 3 Loadalls to meet the all-important Stage 5 emissions targets and, at the same time, added the Dualtech VT gearbox to more models.
The firm has tweaked its 4.8-litre engine to meet the tougher regulations via a combination of selective catalytic reduction (SCR) and diesel particulate filter (DPF) exhaust after-treatments.
There is no change in power for Agri-spec models, which still pack 109hp.
However, Agri Super and Agri Xtra variants have gained 5hp improvements to 130hp and 150hp, respectively, and torque has gone up to 550Nm and 660Nm (a 7% increase).
