Building on the strengths of the previous 5R models, John Deere’s new 5R Series tractors have been designed to provide enhanced levels of comfort and performance, all in a compact unit.

With an optimised wheelbase of 2.25 m, the new 5R series combines a one-piece curved frame design with a low centre of gravity to facilitate front loader installation on-the-go, while still maintaining manoeuvrability at a turning radius of only 3.75 m, even when fitted with a loader.

The new 67.1 kW (90hp) 5090R, 74.6 kW (100hp) 5100R, 85.8 kW (115hp) 5115R and 93.2 kW (125hp) 5125R models are equipped with fuel efficient 4.5L John Deere PowerTech PWX engines. Three transmission options are available, including the 16/16 CommandQuad manual transmission, which features four ranges and four PowerShift gears; the 32/16 Command8 with eight PowerShift gears; and an ECO mode that enables a top speed of 40 km/h at only 1759 engine rpm.

With a shipping weight of 4.3 tonnes, the new 5R Series tractors can lift as much as 4.7 or optionally 5.3 tonnes. 

For improved operator comfort especially in rough terrain, John Deere’s new 5R Series tractors are available with front axle suspension and features independent arms 

In addition, the new 543R front loader offers automatic mast and implement latch, a 10 per cent increase in lift capacity, higher breakout force and an increased roll-back angle. 

Designed for use in narrow row crops, other specialty crops and vineyards, the new 5RN Series tractors feature a minimum width of 1.8 m, a narrow cab and mechanical front wheel drive.
