FPInnovations' PIT group conducted tests comparing the fuel efficiency and traction performance of 6x2 and 6x4 tractor models. The tests found that 6x2 tractors consumed 2.6-3.5% less fuel than similar 6x4 models. Pulling sled tests also showed that 6x2 tractors traveled shorter distances, reached lower maximum speeds, and had slower acceleration compared to 6x4 tractors. The results demonstrate the potential fuel savings of 6x2 tractors for fleets.
