AGCO Power Launches CORE75 in Massey Ferguson, Valtra
The CORE75 engine platform now powers new Massey Ferguson MF 7S MARK 2 and Valtra T Series tractors.
Updated on Nov. 5, 2026 in Manufacturing
AGCO Power has adopted its CORE75 engine platform in new Massey Ferguson MF 7S MARK 2 and Valtra T Series tractors. The company will display CORE75 tractors and engines at EIMA International 2026 in Bologna, Italy, from November 10 to 14.
Why it matters
The rollout extends a single engine platform across two tractor brands, with each application tailored to its machine's requirements. CORE engines can already run on renewable diesel in the form of Hydrotreated Vegetable Oil (HVO), a point relevant to buyers weighing fuel options.
The CORE family includes three engine models: CORE50, CORE75 and CORE80. CORE75 was named Engine of the Year 2023 and CORE80 was named Diesel Engine of the Year 2026, while the source provides no sales or pricing figures.
The players
AGCO Power
AGCO Power is the engine business of AGCO, a global agricultural machinery manufacturer, and develops the CORE engine family at its Linnavuori site in Finland.
Massey Ferguson
Massey Ferguson is an agricultural tractor brand owned by AGCO, known for its MF tractor lines sold worldwide.
Valtra
Valtra is an AGCO tractor brand based in Finland, recognized for its T Series tractors used in farming operations.
The details
In the Massey Ferguson MF 7S MARK 2 range, CORE75 is matched to the Dyna-VT continuously variable transmission. In Valtra's sixth-generation T Series, CORE75 versions are paired with the AGCO ML180 continuously variable transmission or a Powershift transmission.
Timeline
CORE75 was named Engine of the Year at the Diesel Progress Summit Awards in Louisville, Kentucky, in 2023.
CORE80 was named Diesel Engine of the Year by Powertrain International in 2026.
AGCO Power will exhibit CORE75 tractors and engines at EIMA International in Bologna, Italy, November 10-14, 2026.
Market Landscape
CORE75 follows its 2023 Engine of the Year recognition at the Diesel Progress Summit Awards with production deployment across Massey Ferguson and Valtra tractors, both AGCO brands. The move extends one engine platform across multiple tractor lines rather than developing separate powertrains for each brand.
Buyers of new Massey Ferguson MF 7S MARK 2 and Valtra T Series tractors will get CORE75 engines paired with specific transmissions depending on the model. Those choosing CORE75 versions can run the engine on renewable diesel such as HVO.
The takeaway
A single engine platform such as CORE75 can serve several tractor brands, with each machine adjusted through turbocharger specifications, control software and calibration. Buyers evaluating tractors should check which transmission is paired with the engine in the model they consider.
What happens next
AGCO Power will display CORE75 tractors and engines at EIMA International 2026 in Bologna, Italy, from November 10 to 14, 2026.
