LUOYANG, China — Luoyang Lutong Agricultural Equipment Co., Ltd. has introduced the LTS2404, a 240-horsepower four-wheel-drive wheeled tractor designed for large-scale tillage, seeding, and heavy implement operations. As the mid-range model in the company's TS-chassis high-horsepower series — sitting between the LTS2204 and the flagship LTS2604 — the LTS2404 delivers a balanced combination of power, durability, and operator comfort for commercial farms and agricultural contractors.
Powertrain and Performance
The LTS2404 is powered by a Shangchai (SDEC) six-cylinder, four-valve, high-pressure common-rail diesel engine with turbocharging and intercooling, producing a rated power output of 177 kW (approximately 240 HP) at 2,200 r/min. The engine's large-displacement design delivers strong low-end torque and ample torque reserve, maintaining stable rpm under heavy load conditions such as deep plowing and combined seeding, while the common-rail fuel system contributes to fuel efficiency and reduced operating noise.
Drive is transmitted through a modular shuttle-type gearbox offering 32 forward and 32 reverse gears with synchronized shifting. This wide ratio span provides a theoretical forward speed range from 0.26 km/h for ultra-low-speed precision cultivation up to 30.72 km/h for efficient road travel and field-to-field transfers. The rear power take-off supports 540/1000 r/min speeds, ensuring compatibility with a broad range of implements including moldboard plows, disc harrows, seed drills, and balers.
Chassis and Dimensions
Built on the reinforced TS-series heavy-duty chassis, the LTS2404 measures 5,840 mm in length, 3,465 mm in width, and 3,220 mm in height, with a minimum operating weight of approximately 8,000 kg. Its 3,000 mm wheelbase and 445 mm minimum ground clearance deliver stable handling on uneven terrain while preserving clearance over row crops and field ridges. Front and rear wheel tracks are set at 2,030 mm and 2,330 mm respectively, providing a wide, balanced footprint for heavy draft loads.
The tractor is fitted with large-diameter agricultural tires — 16.9-28 at the front and 20.8-38 at the rear — maximizing traction and flotation in soft field conditions. A full hydraulic steering system comes as standard, reducing operator effort during long working days, while the chassis cooling system helps maintain consistent performance under sustained heavy loads.
Operator Environment
The LTS2404 features a fully enclosed, air-conditioned cabin designed to minimize operator fatigue during extended shifts. An adjustable steering column, ergonomic control layout, and clear instrument cluster provide a comfortable and informative workspace. The cabin's sound-dampening construction helps maintain a quieter operating environment, while LED working lights and a rotary warning light extend safe operation into low-light conditions. Optional front and rear ballast weights — 600 kg and 360 kg respectively — are available to further optimize traction and stability for heavy implement work.
Market Positioning
With its 240 HP rating, reinforced TS chassis, and comprehensive feature set, the LTS2404 is targeted at large-scale farms, agricultural cooperatives, and contractors seeking a versatile high-horsepower tractor capable of handling deep plowing, wide-width seeding, and heavy draft operations at competitive operating costs. The model extends Luoyang Lutong's presence in the 200-plus horsepower segment, reinforcing the company's commitment to serving both domestic and international agricultural markets.
Luoyang Lutong Agricultural Equipment Co., Ltd., based in Luoyang, Henan Province, manufactures a full range of wheeled tractors and agricultural machinery, with products exported to markets across Asia, Africa, Europe, and the Americas.
