Everything You Need To Know About The Solis 20 4WD
The Solis 20 is a compact tractor that packs a lot of power for its relatively small size. It’s ideal for smallholdings, sports clubs, and large school grounds because of the 4WD front axle. This gives the Solis compact tractor better traction and manoeuvrability, enabling ease of use over muddy terrain.
Solis is the fastest-growing compact tractor brand in Europe, and every year they sell over 90,000 Solis tractors. One of the most exciting models they’re producing today is the Solis 20 4WD, which has many innovative design features and offers a wide range of unique benefits.
The Solis 20 compact tractor is designed with a small frame and low ground clearance. This enables the use of a mowing deck, which makes it ideal for use on smallholdings. Its agile four-wheel drive (4WD) handling ensures the compact tractor is easy to use for a wide range of tasks.
The 3-cylinder Mitsubishi engine powers the compact Solis 20 tractor. Combining this small tractor’s power with different tyre options, such as agricultural, industrial, and turf, means it’s a versatile compact tractor that’s the best value on the market today.
What Makes The Solis 20 4WD Compact Tractor So Special?
