AutoNXT X45 Electric Tractor Price and Features: The Indian auto sector is rapidly getting electrified. This journey of electrification that started from the road has now reached the fields. AutoNxt has now launched the country’s first electric tractor AutoNxt X45. Maharashtra Chief Minister Eknath Shinde was also present at the launch of this electric tractor. The company’s CEO Kaustubh Dhonde told Aaj Tak, “The starting price of this electric tractor is Rs 15.00 lakh. However, this does not include the subsidy available on electric vehicles. The subsidy will depend on different states, after which its price will be reduced further.”
How is the country’s first electric tractor:
AutoNxt X45 is similar to a traditional tractor in terms of look and design. Kaustubh Dhonde says that it has been designed for heavy duty which is capable of doing all the tasks related to agriculture in India. This electric tractor will play an important role in reducing the cost of farming. In this, the company has given an electric motor of 32 KW capacity which generates a maximum power of 45 HP. It has a battery pack of 35 KWHr capacity which can work for 8 hours in a field of about 8 acres on a single charge.
Kaustubh says that its range may reduce a bit during heavy duty. But this tractor can work for at least 6 hours on a single charge. The company is offering two different charging options with it. It can be easily charged by connecting it to a household socket (15A). Its battery will take about 6 hours to be fully charged with a regular (single phase) charger, whereas its battery can be fully charged in just 3 hours with a three-phase charger. Its loading capacity is 10-15 tonnes.
Low-maintenance, huge savings:
The company says that this tractor is suitable for agricultural purposes as well as metal manufacturing, cement manufacturing, construction industry, airport, defense and biomass related works. The most important thing is that it is completely electric, so a lot of money spent on diesel can be saved. The company says that its maintenance is also very economical. Its running cost is very low compared to any diesel tractor. This tractor gives high torque and intense acceleration for better performance.
Silent Work:
Being an electric tractor, it is very quiet to use. That is, it can be easily used in residential areas without any noise. Usually when diesel tractors are used, their engines make a lot of noise. But with this tractor you can do your work silently.
How long will the battery last:
This is a big question that comes to the mind of every electric vehicle buyer. According to the information given on the company’s official website, the battery life cycle of this electric tractor is 3000. That is, its battery can easily last for about 8 to 10 years. However, it also depends on the load given to the vehicle, usage and temperature range.
Kaustubh Dhonde said that this electric tractor is available for sale all over India. At present, we have launched X45, after this two more models (25HP and 60HP) will also be introduced on which work is in progress. For booking the tractor, you will have to contact the number given on the company’s official website.
