Massey Ferguson MF 260

Price and what it is

The MF 260 sits between the 50 hp MF 240 and the larger MF 375. Millat calls it a multi-purpose tractor. It comes in three versions: the standard MF 260 at Rs 3,064,320, the MF 260 Deluxe without front weights at Rs 3,328,800 and the Deluxe with front weights at Rs 3,463,320. These ex-factory prices include 14% GST and come from Millat’s revision effective 16 May 2026; the official website does not publish a price list.

Engine and gearbox

All versions use the T3.1524 turbocharged diesel: three cylinders, 2.5 litres, direct injection. Millat rates it at 60 hp at 2,250 rpm and 212 Nm at 1,600 rpm, with about 48 hp at the PTO. The standard model has an air-cooled, fin-type oil cooler, while the Deluxe gets a water-cooled oil cooler. The gearbox is a sliding-spur unit with 8 forward and 2 reverse gears and a top speed of 27.9 km/h. A dual clutch and live PTO are standard.

Size and practicality

The standard MF 260 is 3,252 mm long, 1,872 mm wide and 2,210 mm tall over the exhaust, weighs about 1,925 kg and has a 1,884 mm wheelbase and 410 mm ground clearance. The Deluxe is longer at 3,450 mm, with a 2,230 mm wheelbase, about 2,100 kg weight and 450 mm clearance, but its turning circle grows from 7,370 mm to 8,760 mm. Both use 7.50-16 front and 14.9/13-28 rear tyres, a 50-litre tank and a 2,145 kg hydraulic lift with draft, position and response control. Oil-immersed multi-disc brakes and a straddle rear axle with epicyclic reduction are standard on every version.

Equipment by variant

The standard MF 260 has manual steering, a spring suspension seat, flat-top fenders, a tool box, a rear-view mirror, a USB port and a wider heat shield. The Deluxe adds hydrostatic power steering, a sun canopy, a heavy-duty front axle and spindles, heavier-ply tyres, a transmission cover and a magnetic drain plug. The most expensive version adds front weights, which help keep the front end down when pulling a loaded trolley.

Which one to buy

Our opinion: the Deluxe without front weights is the best value. Power steering and the canopy make long days much easier for around Rs 264,000 more than the standard model. Choose the front-weight version if you do a lot of heavy trolley haulage.
