As Case IH and New Holland refresh their mid-power tractor generation at trade shows like Agrotech 2026, GROWER brings its own offering: the GT 904, GT 1004, GT 1104 and GT 1204 models
The 90-to-120-horsepower tractor segment is drawing a large share of the global agricultural industry’s attention right now. At the recent edition of Agrotech, the international agricultural technology trade show in Kielce, Poland, Case IH and New Holland presented their new generation of tractors around a shared theme: greater efficiency, more operator comfort, and full integration with precision agriculture systems. New Holland showcased its T5.90S there, an 80-120 HP model that in its top configuration delivers 110 hp and 490 Nm of maximum torque, while Case IH exhibited the new Puma 155-185 generation alongside the Farmall 110A, designed specifically for family farming operations.
That simultaneous move by two of the market’s most established manufacturers confirms something already taking shape: the mid-to-high-power segment is, in 2026, one of the most contested in agricultural machinery. Into that context comes GROWER’s offering, the American brand: the Range 90-120 HP, made up of the GT 904, GT 1004, GT 1104 and GT 1204 models, engineered according to the company’s own documentation to deliver maximum power, high torque and continuous performance for demanding agricultural applications.
GROWER’s Offering: GT 904, GT 1004, GT 1104 and GT 1204
All four models in the GROWER Range 90-120 HP use inline four-cylinder, water-cooled, four-stroke, direct-injection, turbocharged and intercooled engines, delivering power ranging from 88.78 to 118.41 hp at 2,400 rpm. It is the same engine family the brand uses in its next line down, the Range 55-80 HP, suggesting a strategy of technological continuity between ranges.
GT 904. A 3.47-liter GT-4C6-90C31 engine, rated at 66.2 kW (88.78 hp) at 2,400 rpm, with a PTO output of 56.27 kW (75.46 hp). 12-speed forward, 12-speed reverse transmission, maximum speed of 32.26 km/h (20.05 mph). A 90-liter fuel tank, minimum operating weight with cab of 2,820 kg, and maximum lift force of 15.88 kN (3,569.97 lbf).
GT 1004. A GT-4C6-100C35 engine, same 3.47-liter displacement, rated at 73.5 kW (98.57 hp) with a PTO output of 62.5 kW (83.81 hp). Shares the transmission and fuel tank with the GT 904, but raises lift force to 17.64 kN (3,965.63 lbf) and operating weight to 3,250 kg.
GT 1104. Built on the same engine block as the GT 1004, it raises power to 81 kW (108 hp), while keeping the same PTO output, lift force and operating weight as its immediate predecessor in the range.
GT 1204. The line’s flagship: a GT-4C6-120C32 engine rated at 88.3 kW (118.41 hp), the highest power output in the entire range, with a PTO output of 75 kW (100.58 hp). It is the only model with a 200-liter fuel tank — double that of the rest of the line — and also posts the highest maximum lift force (21.192 kN / 4,764.15 lbf) and traction force (28.371 kN / 6,378.05 lbf) in the series.
Engine, Torque and Fuel Consumption: One Engine Family Across the Line
All four models share the same engineering philosophy: inline four-cylinder, water-cooled blocks with direct injection, turbocharging and an intercooler, all running at a rated speed of 2,400 rpm. Displacement stays constant at 3.47 liters across all four models, with turbo calibration and engine electronics accounting for the power difference between the GT 904 (88.78 hp) and the GT 1204 (118.41 hp).
On runtime, three of the four models — GT 904, GT 1004 and GT 1104 — share a 90-liter tank, while the GT 1204 doubles that capacity at 200 liters, a significant jump that reflects its position as the line’s flagship, built for longer working days in deep tillage and large-scale soil preparation.
Transmission, PTO and Hydraulic System
All four models share the same 12-speed forward, 12-speed reverse (F12+R12) gearbox, with a maximum forward speed of 32.26 km/h. That transmission consistency across the range reflects this series’ positioning as a homogeneous, heavy-duty line, without a “reduced” entry step.
The PTO is equally consistent: all four models offer a rear-mounted, independent power take-off with selectable speeds of 540/760 or 540/1000 rpm, delivered through an 8-spline shaft (with a 6-spline option) — the same configuration used across the brand’s lower-power lines, which simplifies implement compatibility for operators running mixed GROWER fleets across different power classes.
The standard hydraulic system includes two pairs of outlets with height control and float control, while the optional package — available on all four models — adds a third pair of hydraulic outlets, an air-conditioned cab, and front and rear iron ballast of up to 1,480 kg. Full hydraulic steering on the front wheels and a rear three-point hitch, rated Category I and II, round out a setup built to run more demanding implements than the brand’s compact lines.
Traction Force and Lift Capacity: The Progression Within the Range
Lift capacity is one of the clearest indicators of the power progression within this line: the GT 904 offers 15.88 kN (3,569.97 lbf), the GT 1004 and GT 1104 share 17.64 kN (3,965.63 lbf), and the GT 1204 reaches 21.192 kN (4,764.15 lbf), the highest figure in the entire range. That progression determines, in practical terms, how large a three-point implement — plows, subsoilers, heavy harrows — each model can safely lift and hold during field work.
On maximum traction force, the GT 904 posts 20.727 kN (4,659.61 lbf), while the GT 1004 and GT 1104 share 23.8875 kN (5,370.12 lbf) and the GT 1204 reaches 28.371 kN (6,378.05 lbf), consistent with its higher engine output and larger fuel tank.
Applications: Extensive Farming, Soil Preparation and Deep Tillage
GROWER’s official documentation points this line specifically toward extensive farming, soil preparation and deep tillage operations — a heavier-duty use profile than the brand’s compact lines, which are geared more toward horticulture and specialty crops. The combination of turbocharged engines, a 12×12-speed transmission and a lift capacity that scales progressively up to the GT 1204 positions this range for heavy draft work, such as plowing, subsoiling and harrowing across extensive acreage.
At the same time, the brand notes that all models feature a hydraulic system designed to integrate seamlessly with the full GROWER implement lineup and adapt easily to different operational requirements, extending its applicability beyond extensive farming into transport and loader work.
Operator Comfort and Consistent Performance
Beyond the raw power figures, GROWER notes in its documentation that the 90-120 HP series delivers comfortable, stable and easy handling, with smooth, uninterrupted performance both in the field and during transport operations. Combining durability, operator comfort, versatility and a solid balance of power and performance, all four models are aimed at producers who need continuous productivity and maximum efficiency throughout every working day.
GROWER Within the International High-Power Tractor Market
GROWER identifies itself as an American agricultural machinery brand, and its brand materials carry the “I Make America” emblem — the grassroots campaign of the Association of Equipment Manufacturers (AEM), the trade association representing agricultural, construction and forestry equipment manufacturers across the United States. That affiliation places GROWER within a U.S.-manufacturing narrative, in a segment contested by already well-established global manufacturers.
The international 90-to-120-HP market remains contested ground for brands with a long track record: John Deere holds a leading volume position across much of North America, Massey Ferguson and Valtra, both AGCO brands, New Holland and Case IH, both under CNH Industrial, along with Kubota and Deutz-Fahr, round out a field of manufacturers with their own lines in this power range. For any brand entering this space — GROWER included — real validation comes with time: dealer network reach, parts availability, and proven field performance across multiple seasons.
The GROWER Range 90-120 HP — GT 904, GT 1004, GT 1104 and GT 1204 — brings together turbocharged, intercooled engines producing up to 118.41 hp, a uniform 12×12-speed transmission across the entire range, and lift and traction capacity that scales progressively up to the GT 1204, the only model with a 200-liter fuel tank. Aimed at extensive farming, soil preparation and deep tillage, the line builds its case on concrete mechanical specifications and a U.S.-manufacturing identity, in a market where John Deere, Massey Ferguson, Valtra, New Holland, Case IH, Kubota and Deutz-Fahr also compete for the same segment. As with any purchase decision in this power range, dealer network strength, after-sale support and proven field performance across multiple seasons will ultimately determine GROWER’s lasting place in this market.
