McCormick Open Field Tractors — Six-Cylinder Capability at Its Most Versatile
For farms that need a high-performance, six-cylinder tractor capable of handling a wide range of tasks — from primary cultivations and drilling to general haulage and field transport — the McCormick X6.6 is one of the most compelling machines in its class.
With up to 175 hp from a proven six-cylinder FPT engine, a wide-ratio Xtrashift transmission with 54 forward gears, a strong closed-centre hydraulic system, and a Premiere cab built for serious working comfort, the X6.6 delivers the power and versatility that modern farming demands. It is a tractor that adapts to the work rather than the other way around — and at a level of specification that represents exceptional value in the open field tractor market.
Farm and Fleet Services supplies the McCormick open field range to farms and agricultural businesses across the South West. Get in touch with the team for straightforward, honest guidance on the X6.6 and the full McCormick range.
Why the McCormick X6.6 Delivers
Proven Six-Cylinder Power for Open Field Work
The X6.6 is powered by the FPT NEF 67 6.7-litre, 6-cylinder, turbo intercooled engine, meeting Stage V and Tier 4 Final emissions regulations. With up to 175 hp on tap and strong, usable torque across the working rev range, it delivers the kind of smooth, consistent output that six-cylinder engines are valued for — whether you are pushing through heavy cultivations, covering large acreages at drilling, or running high-demand mounted equipment for extended hours.
A turbocharged, intercooled design keeps power delivery consistent even under sustained load and in varying ambient conditions — so the X6.6 performs when it matters, not just on paper.
- Up to 175 hp from the proven FPT NEF 67 6.7-litre engine
- Six-cylinder, turbo intercooled configuration for smooth, consistent power
- Stage V and Tier 4 Final compliant for clean, efficient operation
- Strong torque across the rev range for demanding mounted and trailed work
Xtrashift Transmission — 54 Gears to Match Every Task
One of the X6.6's standout features is its Xtrashift transmission with 6 powershift speeds (HML) and 3 ranges, providing 54 forward and 18 reverse gears — a gear spread broad enough to match practically any combination of task, implement, and field condition with a precise, efficient working speed.
The six-speed HML powershift allows smooth, on-the-go speed changes within each range without clutching, keeping momentum consistent and reducing the effort needed to adapt to changing conditions mid-pass. Whether you need slow, precise control for specialist applications or a higher road or field speed for covering ground efficiently, the X6.6's transmission gives you the flexibility to work at exactly the right pace.
- 54F + 18R gears via Xtrashift with 6 HML powershift speeds and 3 ranges
- On-the-go powershift shifting within each range for smooth, uninterrupted operation
- Wide gear spread for precise speed matching across cultivation, drilling, and transport tasks
- Adaptable across the full range of open field and mixed farm applications
Hydraulic Performance — High-Flow, Variable-Displacement Efficiency
The X6.6 is equipped with a closed-centre hydraulic system featuring a variable-displacement pump delivering 148 l/min total flow — giving you the capacity to run high-demand mounted implements efficiently and without compromise.
The closed-centre, variable-displacement design delivers hydraulic flow on demand rather than continuously, reducing energy consumption and heat generation when full flow is not required. The result is a more efficient, responsive hydraulic system that keeps your implements performing at their best while reducing unnecessary load on the engine.
- 148 l/min total hydraulic flow for high-demand implement compatibility
- Variable-displacement pump for efficient, demand-based hydraulic delivery
- Closed-centre system reduces energy waste and keeps the system cool under sustained use
- Responsive performance across a wide range of mounted and trailed equipment
The Premiere Cab — Comfort That Drives Productivity
A well-designed cab is not a luxury — it is a productivity tool. The X6.6's Premiere four-post cab is built around the operator, with a layout and environment that keeps fatigue low and focus high throughout a long working day.
- Four-post cab construction — a rigid, secure structure that supports a quiet, stable working environment across rough field and track conditions
- Opening roof hatch — additional ventilation for warm-weather working, keeping cab temperature comfortable during extended summer operations
- Forward-sloping bonnet — improved forward visibility for cleaner sightlines to the implement and headland, supporting more confident, precise field operation
- Well-arranged operator controls — placed ergonomically to reduce reach and effort, with everything you need within comfortable access throughout the working day
- Strong all-round visibility — designed to give the operator clear awareness of the machine and implement position at all times
The Premiere cab keeps the operator comfortable and in control — and a comfortable, focused operator gets more done.
Where the McCormick X6.6 Performs
The X6.6 is a well-rounded, highly versatile open field tractor suited to a broad range of UK farming operations:
- Medium and large arable farms needing a dependable six-cylinder tractor for cultivations, drilling, spraying, and general field work across significant acreages
- Mixed farms requiring a versatile machine that handles the full range of seasonal tasks — from primary tillage to forage work, baling, and trailer haulage — without compromise
- Agricultural contractors who need consistent, reliable performance across multiple clients and a wide variety of implements and tasks throughout the working year
- Livestock and arable mixed operations looking for a tractor that earns its keep across both cropping and livestock-related tasks without the cost of a larger machine
- Farms replacing or upgrading a mid-range tractor seeking a step up in performance, gear versatility, and cab quality without moving to a full high-horsepower model
