International News: McCormick X6.414 P6-Drive is the 2023 Tractor Of The Year – Best Utility at EIMA 2022

“McCormick has brought open-field technology to the multi-purpose tractor segment, recognising the need for greater versatility for tractors in this segment and the demand for precision-farming technology”

Based on this reasoning, the Tractor of the Year jury, made up of 26 journalists from leading European trade publications, awarded the McCormick X6.414 P6-Drive the 2023 Tractor of The Year award in the Best Utility category.

The prestigious award was collected by Alberto Morra along with the management of Argo Tractors during the ceremony held in the Quadriportico of the Bologna Exhibition Centre on the first day of the international trade show dedicated to agricultural mechanisation that saw a record numbers of visitors. More than 327,000 visitors, including more than 57,000 from abroad, and a huge success, even in the media, made the 45th edition of Eima International the best one ever, putting behind it the difficult years caused by the health emergency and the international economic downturn.

A success that would not be possible without the invaluable work, constant dedication and daily commitment of all partners, who, with their human and professional qualities, represent the strength of this company that allows us to look to the future with enthusiasm”.
