Three models, labeled “P4090,” “P4100,” and “P4100,” stand out for featuring Doosan “D34” series engines under the hood, paired with 18+18 gear mechanical transmissions. Their captivating appearance invites onlookers, marking the business card of the Lovol “P4000” series. These tractors have all the potential to challenge current category leaders. However, their distribution in Italy and Europe, in general, is currently hindered by a sales network still in its organizational phase. Once this hurdle is overcome, these white-green machines are certain to attract a wide range of operators, thanks in part to their competitive list prices, hiding a construction quality that is far from negligible.
Four-pillar cabins
An exemplary feature is the four-pillar cabins dubbed “Hi-Vision Cab,” characterized by a windshield that extends upwards towards the roof, resulting in a remarkably bright interior, facilitating high-elevation loader operations. The cabins also offer aesthetically pleasing interior elements. The driver’s position, adjustable in terms of steering wheel and seat (the latter being suspended and upholstered with robust breathable fabric), has received no criticisms. Furthermore, the cabin is well-ventilated, equipped with both heating and air conditioning as standard.
It is isolated from the chassis, and the work equipment is commendable, thanks to the hydraulic circuits’ good flow rates. The service circuit delivers 35 liters of oil per minute, ensuring precise steering and smooth operation, while the working circuit provides 55 liters per minute, accessible through a maximum of three distributors, capable of supporting a rear lifter capacity of 30 quintals. The power take-off operates at 540 and 1000 rpm, engaged via electrohydraulic means, as is the case for the dual traction, which activates automatically when the brakes, with oil-bath disc brakes, are applied.
Reliable and fuel-efficient
The four-cylinder Doosan “D34” engine powering the Lovol “P4000” is also available in a 135 horsepower configuration, surpassing the 90 to 110 horsepower range typical of the family. Its reliability is unquestionable, supported by the thousands of units of this engine moving agricultural, construction, and off-road industrial machinery across Asia. Meeting stage V emissions standards through a post-treatment system comprising DOC, DPF, and SCR filters, it avoids the need for EGR recirculation systems. The engine exhibits good elasticity with very linear torque curves from 1500 to 1700 rpm and torque reserves of around 35%, allowing for limited gear changes. The synchronized mechanical gearbox offers 18 speeds achieved by combining six gears and three ranges, with a synchronized mechanical reverser or, optionally, an electrohydraulic power shuttle providing the same speeds in reverse. Optionally available is also a creeper gear, providing 36+36 ratios, with a minimum ground speed of 390 meters per hour and a maximum road speed of almost 38 kilometers per hour.
