13 August 2026, Belarus: Belarus Series 1300 continues the climb up MTZ’s power ladder at 130-136 HP, retaining the 16-forward/8-reverse gearbox of the 1000/1200 series but with a slightly higher 4,300 kg lift capacity. Weight ranges from 5,570-5,900 kg, putting it firmly in the heavy-duty tractor class.
What sets it apart: At this power level, Series 1300 is built for operators running larger, heavier implements across bigger acreages — deep tillage, larger seed drills, and heavier trailed equipment all become practical with the added horsepower and lift capacity. The gearbox retains the same 16/8 layout as the lighter 1000/1200 series, giving operators familiar shift patterns as they move up the MTZ power range.
Best fit: Larger commercial farms needing substantial horsepower and lift capacity for heavy tillage and implement work, without stepping up to MTZ’s largest general-purpose tractors.
