Lingong Agricultural Machinery from Linyi, China, has chosen Linglong’s 650/85R38 premium agricultural tyres to fit their new 9E Series (ECVT) tractor. With a power output exceeding 600 HP, this is the strongest hybrid drive agricultural tractor currently on the market.
The Lingong 9E Series (ECVT) is powered by tandem hybrid technology. Its engine does not directly drive the wheels, but acts as a generator to charge the battery, or supply power to the electric motor, which in turn drives the wheels with stepless variable-speed control. The hybrid technology allows the engine to work in the optimal economic fuel consumption zone, thus reducing overall fuel consumption without sacrificing high operating efficiency. The Lingong 9E series front and rear dual wheels are equipped with eight Linglong 650/85R38 premium agricultural tyres. In combination with the tractor’s innovative articulated frame design, these tyres ensure exceptional load-bearing capacity, minimal slip rate, and low soil compaction, offering outstanding performance in various demanding farmland environments.
‘In recent years, China’s electric and hybrid vehicle industry has boomed. This not only saw the rise of Chinese automotive brands on the global market, but also provided a boost for related industries such as tyre manufacturing,’ says Jean-Paul Spijker, Director Sales and Marketing Specialty Tire Europe. ‘As a pioneer in the field, we are now one of the leading brands in China’s electric and hybrid vehicle supply market, thanks to our experience and innovative technology. From 2020 to 2023, Linglong ranked first in China’s tyre industry, and in 2023 even topped the global sales chart for tyre supply for this type of vehicle.’
The close collaboration between Linglong Tire and the Lingong Agricultural Machinery 9E Series (ECVT) tractor underlines Linglong’s leading position in the electric and hybrid vehicle sector. Both companies will continue to collaborate to develop high-quality, eco-friendly tyre products, jointly promoting the transformation of agricultural equipment sector and contributing to the sustainable development of global agriculture.
