Eicher 280 Plus 4WD Price October 2026

1,290 ccEngine capacity

The Eicher 280 Plus 4WD combines a 26 HP, two-cylinder 1290 cc water-cooled Simpson engine with power steering. Keep the Plus name on the order: older Eicher 280 listings can describe a different engine. The current Indian manufacturer specification, rather than a mixed family listing, is the basis of this review.

Narrow width is a configuration question

Eicher lists overall width as 1140 mm, with a narrow figure of 965 mm. Before using the smaller figure to plan a vineyard or orchard route, have the dealer identify the required wheel arrangement and measure the delivered machine. Include the implement and turning area. The listed tractor weight is 1015 kg and wheelbase 1550 mm; neither establishes slope suitability or towing capacity.

The standard tyre entries are 5.0 x 12 front and 8 x 18 rear; other sizes are optional. The advertised 23.55 km/h forward speed is specifically associated with 8.3 x 20 rear tyres. Do not carry that condition into a different tyre package. Confirm the approved front/rear pairing when choosing the final configuration.

Specify the hydraulic option separately

The single-clutch, 9F + 3R partial constant-mesh transmission is paired with two 540 rpm PTO points, at 2450 and 1750 engine rpm. Category 1 linkage lift is stated as 750 kgf with lower links horizontal. An auxiliary pump with spool valve is optional, not automatically included with power steering. For a sprayer or hydraulic attachment, specify the circuit and flow needed; see the hydraulic-remotes guide. A 23-litre tank is a capacity figure, not a measured working-day duration.
