Although the first Zetor Major 80 tractors are only just arriving in the UK, there will be a couple of developments in this important new range before the end of the year.
This month, the first Cabrio versions will be added to the Zetor price list in both two- and four-wheel-drive versions, while the two-wheel-drive Major 80 with a cab is scheduled for introduction in September.
For the time being, the Zetor Major is only available as an 80hp tractor, but the intention is eventually to have models with 50hp, 60hp and 70hp as well, with the smallest of these likely to appear in 2014.
While the high-spec Zetor Forterra HSX with its efficient engine, advanced power shuttle 30×30 transmission and air-conditioning as standard has been introduced to appeal to UK farmers looking for more sophistication in their tractors, the Major is aimed at a completely different market.

“The introduction of the Major was a reaction to the market’s demand for a value-for-money tractor,” Zetor UK’s Sales & Retail Finance Manager, Pete Greening, said. “Built to compete in the lower-horsepower sector, it starts off as a basic tractor, but various additional specifications are available to suit buyers’ requirements.”
