To celebrate its “Golden Tractor for the Design” win at Agritechnica last November, Valtra has released a special edition of its N174 tractor model sporting a bright gold paint job and flashy decals.

Created by Valtra’s Unlimited Studio, the impressive-looking tractor will go on display at several special events and exhibitions around the world.

In addition to its golden exterior, the Unlimited edition specifications include bright golden graphics, tinted windows, the golden award logos on the side window and Unlimited decals on the door hinge.

The interior of the special edition tractor features a brown leather wrapped steering wheel and seats, as well as an exclusive Unlimited dark grey mat.

Valtra says customers can order their N series tractors with the Unlimited specifications.

Valtra’s award-winning design made its debut with the T series tractors back in 2014 and will be implemented across all future models.

The Unlimited concept by Valtra was introduced in 2013 and allows customers to design and suit their tractors to their needs. In the studio, Valtra’s technicians can fit any features or equipment desired by the customer as long as they are technically feasible and legally compliant.

Valtra says the studio now delivers tractors to over 20 countries around the world.

In addition to the "Golden Tractor for the Design" award, Valtra’s fourth-generation N series tractor also snagged a "Machine of the Year" award in the lower mid-range tractor category at world leading agricultural machinery trade fair Agritechnica in Hannover, Germany last year.

The new N series 4-cylinder tractors will replace the existing N range and features a completely new design with six models ranging from 105 to 185hp.

In addition to its futuristic new look, it also boasts several power, control and technology upgrades.

Valtra Europe, Africa, Middle East (EAME) marketing director Mikko Lehikoinen told TradeFarmMachinery.com.au at Agritechnica last year that Australian farmers can expect to see the new range in the country sometime this year.

"(In 2015) we launched the T4 range in Australia and New Zealand and it has really taken off but we know the N series is the best-selling range over there because of the dairy market," he says.
