For farmers in Gujarat and Rajasthan who plough deep in hard ground, the 245 has been the default answer for a long time. The engine is a 2700 cc three-cylinder making 46 HP, and Massey rates it at 1790 ERPM, which is unusually low. Low rated speed with high torque is what lets a 9-tyne cultivator keep moving through dry, compacted soil instead of stalling and forcing you down a gear. PTO output is 42.5 HP, a strong conversion from 46. Hydraulics get draft, position and response control with both CAT-1 and CAT-2 balls, so the same tractor takes a light seed drill in the morning and an MB plough in the afternoon. Kerb weight is 1915 kg, tank 55 litres, warranty 2 years. It costs ₹7.46 to ₹8.05 lakh.

Our verdict: Massey Ferguson 245 DI

Verdict by the Aglist editorial desk

The 245 is a puller first and everything else second, and we would buy it for that reason alone. Getting 42.5 PTO HP out of a 46 HP engine is one of the better conversions in this class, so an implement that specifies 40 HP will actually run properly rather than nearly. The dual clutch with separate PTO control makes thresher work civil, and 1915 kg of kerb weight keeps the wheels planted when you are dragging a plough through black cotton soil that has gone hard in May.

Our reservations are specific. The brakes are sealed dry disc, not oil immersed, and on a tractor that will spend half its life pulling loaded trolleys down a slope, oil immersed brakes last longer and fade less. Several rivals at this money now fit them as standard. The base gearbox is sliding mesh in some variants, so check what you are being sold. And at ₹7.46 lakh the 245 sits above the class median for 46 HP, with a 1700 kg lift that some cheaper machines match or beat. You are paying for the engine and the badge, and both are worth something, but know that is what you are paying for.

Massey Ferguson 245 DI — What works / What to watch

What works

  • 42.5 PTO HP from 46 engine HP, a strong conversion for the class
  • 1790 ERPM rated engine holds torque through hard, dry ploughing
  • Draft, position and response control with CAT-1 and CAT-2 balls
  • Dual clutch with separate PTO control for thresher and reaper work
  • 1915 kg kerb weight gives real traction in black cotton soil

What to watch

  • Sealed dry disc brakes, where oil immersed would last longer on trolley duty
  • Sliding mesh transmission on some variants, so confirm before you sign
  • ₹7.46 lakh sits above the class median for a 46 HP tractor
  • 1700 kg lift is no better than cheaper machines in the same bracket

What farmers use it for

Best for: Deep ploughing and heavy cultivator work on ten to twenty five acres of hard or black cotton soil.

Heavy field work and haulage: MB plough, 9-tyne cultivator, rotavator, thresher and trolley; a long-standing favourite in Gujarat and Rajasthan

Massey Ferguson 245 DI — Frequently asked questions

What is the price of the Massey Ferguson 245 DI in 2026?

The 245 DI is priced from ₹7.46 lakh to ₹8.05 lakh. Where you sit in that band depends on whether you take power steering, which is optional on this model, and which of the two gearboxes you choose. Add state RTO registration and insurance on top, because those alone vary by tens of thousands between states.

How many HP is the Massey Ferguson 245 DI and what is the PTO power?

Engine rating is 46 HP and the PTO puts out 42.5 HP. That second number is the one to plan implements around. At 42.5 HP the PTO will comfortably drive a 6 foot rotavator, a full size thresher or a straw reaper, provided you keep the engine near its 1790 ERPM working band rather than lugging it lower.

Is the Massey Ferguson 245 DI good for trolley haulage?

It pulls well. The low 1790 ERPM engine and 1915 kg kerb weight are exactly what a loaded trolley wants going up a mandi ramp. Our one caution is the braking. This model uses sealed dry disc brakes rather than oil immersed ones, so on long downhill runs with a full load, expect more pad wear and check them more often.

Which is better, the Massey Ferguson 245 DI or the Massey Ferguson 7250 DI?

Both are 46 HP with the same 2700 cc engine size, but they are different tools. The 7250 starts cheaper at ₹6.50 lakh, has a constant mesh Comfimesh gearbox, oil immersed brakes and a bigger 1800 kg lift. The 245 gives a published 42.5 PTO HP and stronger draft control. Pick the 7250 for comfort, the 245 for hydraulics.
