13 August 2026, Belarus: Belarus Series 500 is one of the most recognizable and widely exported tractor platforms in the MTZ lineup, rated at 57-64 HP with an 18-forward/4-reverse gearbox and a flat 3,200 kg lifting capacity across the series. Weight ranges from 3,430-4,200 kg depending on configuration.
What sets it apart: The 18/4 gear split gives operators a wide spread of low-range field speeds for tillage and cultivation work, while the substantial 3,200 kg lift capacity — a step up from the 400/600 series — supports heavier three-point mounted and semi-mounted implements. This is the power class where MTZ’s row-crop tractor identity really takes shape: built for mounted, semi-mounted, and trailed agricultural machinery across general field operations.
Best fit: Row-crop and general field farming operations needing dependable mid-power tractors for tillage, planting, and cultivation work with a variety of mounted implements.
