Power for Heavy Work: Impressive Torque and Maneuverability in the Yard

Electric and Powerful: Myth Busted

The idea that an electric tractor would be less suitable for heavy yard and stable work is outdated. Knegt e-tractors deliver high torque and are specifically designed to meet the intensive demands of the equine sector: lifting, pulling, loading and maneuvering in tight spaces.

Instant Torque for Heavy Front-Loader Work

When moving heavy hay bales, feed bags or mucking out with a front-loader, immediate and constant power is essential. Electric motors deliver maximum torque from standstill, making the tractor exceptionally strong for pulling, leveling the arena and towing trailers. The 55 hp Knegt (404G2E) even has a split motor system: a separate electric motor for the hydraulics so power for the front-loader and three-point hitch remains available without sacrificing traction.

Compact and Agile in Narrow Aisles

In stables, along paddocks and between buildings, compact dimensions and maneuverability are crucial. Knegt tractors are designed as compact all-rounders with a small turning radius, making it easy and safe to maneuver in narrow aisles and around stalls. That increases efficiency and reduces the risk of dangerous situations around horses.

Compatible with Existing Implements

Switching to electric does not mean you have to replace all your existing implements. Knegt tractors come with standard 4WD, dual-stage clutch, a Category 1 three-point hitch and PTO speeds of 540 and 1000 RPM. This means you can continue using familiar equipment such as manure spreaders, harrows, levellers and feeding tools without any problem.

More Power, Less Hassle

The combination of instant torque, quiet operation and high maneuverability makes the Knegt e-tractor a game changer for the equine sector.
