Escorts Kubota marks three decades of Farmtrac with the 6055 Classic 'Dark
Edition' and the PROMAXX 2.0 range
• 6055 Classic ‘Dark Edition’ is the first all-black tractor in Farmtrac's history, offered in both 2WD
and 4WD.
• PROMAXX series expanded up to 50 HP with two models, the 47 HT PROMAXX and the 50
PROMAXX, both available in 2WD and 4WD
Faridabad, September 02, 2026: Escorts Kubota, the agri-machinery and construction equipment major,
marked three decades of its Farmtrac brand in India with two new offerings. The 6055 Classic ‘Dark
Edition’ is the first all-black tractor in the Farmtrac portfolio, a 55 HP category model offered in both
two-wheel drive (2WD) and four-wheel drive (4WD) variants. Alongside it, the PROMAXX series has been
expanded under "PROMAXX 2.0" with two new models, the 47 HT PROMAXX (47 HP) and the 50
PROMAXX (50 HP category), both available in 2WD and 4WD.
The company operates three tractor brands in India, namely Kubota, Farmtrac and Powertrac, catering
to premium, entry-premium and value segments respectively. Escorts launched Farmtrac in 1995, and
the brand today spans the 26 HP to 60 HP range in India.
The Farmtrac 6055 Classic ‘Dark Edition’ is powered by a robust four-cylinder, 3682 cc engine that
delivers maximum torque of 247 Nm, ensuring performance under demanding field conditions. It carries
a 2,500 kg heavy-duty hydraulic lift, premium LED lighting and a heat shield, and has been designed for
progressive farmers and larger landholdings that require high productivity and durability. Built to handle
a wide range of advanced applications, it is suited to implements including the super seeder, laser
leveler, reversible mould board (MB) plough, rotavator and harrow, as well as heavy haulage.
The PROMAXX 2.0 range, comprising the 47 HT PROMAXX and the 50 PROMAXX, is powered by
Farmtrac's advanced 3514 cc HT (High Torque) engine delivering up to 230 Nm of torque. Both models
carry a 12 forward and 3 reverse gearbox, a creeper speed option and a spacious flat platform for
operator comfort. Engineered to meet the evolving needs of modern farming, the range combines
higher torque, advanced technology and 4WD variants that are capable to support demanding
applications.
Commenting on the launch, Nikhil Nanda, Chairman and Managing Director said, "The 6055 Classic
‘Dark Edition’ and the PROMAXX 2.0 range are in line with our vision of strengthening the portfolio
through focused, application-led products. Farmtrac has completed three decades in India, and the brand
continues to anchor our position across key horsepower categories. Each such introduction is a deliberate
step towards our ambition of a stronger market position in India."
Akira Kato, Deputy Managing Director said, "The 41 to 50 HP category continues to dominate the
domestic market as the largest segment. However, customer demand within this space is shifting rapidly
towards four-wheel drive and higher torque, driven by farmers undertaking more demanding
applications. The 47 HT PROMAXX and the 50 PROMAXX represent a natural progression for a series that
has already established a strong market presence, and the ‘Dark Edition’ extends that same choice of
drive and styling into the premium 55 HP category."
Neeraj Mehra, Chief Officer, Tractor Business Division added, "Over the past five to eight years, the
rising adoption of heavy-duty mechanisation, coupled with a new generation of youth entering
agriculture as primary decision-makers, has significantly evolved customer expectations. Farmers today
are shifting away from basic tractors towards multi-utility machines that offer superior comfort and
modern styling. The PROMAXX 2.0 answers that with its HT engine, creeper speed option and spacious
flat platform, while the 6055 Classic ‘Dark Edition’, Farmtrac's first ever black tractor, pairs a bold
aesthetic with robust performance. We are confident both launches will strengthen the Farmtrac brand
and expand our footprint among progressive, technologically advanced farming communities."
Both new offerings are being introduced through Farmtrac's authorized dealer network.
