1600 Series Compact Utility
The 1600 series is Mahindra's compact utility lineup — 25.9 to 38.7 HP in a small footprint, built for large estates, hunting properties, and serious hobby farms. Every model runs Mahindra's mCRD diesel with no DPF, offers HST or shuttle transmission options, loader and mid-mower compatibility, and is backed by the industry's best 7-year powertrain warranty.
mCRD Engine Technology — No DPF, No Downtime
Every 1600 series tractor runs Mahindra's mCRD (Mahindra Common Rail Diesel) fuel injection system, which achieves Tier 4 Final emissions without a diesel particulate filter. That means no forced regeneration cycles eating into your work time, no DPF to replace, and full power available every time you start the tractor. The 1626 uses a proven 3-cylinder Mitsubishi engine; the 1635 and 1640 step up to a 4-cylinder for even more torque.
- •Tier 4 Final compliance without a DPF — no regen downtime ever
- •Full rated power available every hour, not interrupted by soot burns
- •Lower long-term maintenance — no DPF filter, sensor, or fluid to service
- •3-cylinder Mitsubishi diesel (1626), 4-cylinder diesel (1635/1640)
- •Naturally aspirated design for durability and long service intervals
3-Range HST Transmission — One Extra Range Matters
The HST-equipped 1600 series models offer a 3-range hydrostatic transmission — Low, Mid, and High — delivering a wider usable ground speed range than 2-range HST competitors. In Low range you can creep at near-zero speed for precision loader work or snow removal without riding the pedal. Mid range handles fieldwork and rotary cutting at productive speeds. High range is for efficient property travel. Prefer gear feel? The Shuttle variants deliver 8F/8R synchromesh.
- •Three selectable speed ranges — more granular control than 2-range HST competitors
- •Low range: near-zero creep for precision loader and grading work
- •Mid range: productive speeds for rotary cutting, mowing, and tillage
- •High range: efficient transport up to 13.3 mph (1626 HST)
- •Shuttle variants offer 8F/8R synchromesh for mechanical-feel operators
Front Loader & 3-Point Hitch Capability
The 1626 pairs with the 1626L front loader, which lifts 1,653 lbs to a full 84 inches — enough to stack round bales or load a tall mixer wagon. The Cat I 3-point hitch handles all standard compact implements, with telescoping stabilizers for fast hookup without tools. An optional mid-PTO running at 2,000 RPM enables mid-mount mower deck operation simultaneously with the rear PTO.
- •1626L loader: 1,653 lb lift capacity at full height of 84 inches
- •Cat I 3-point hitch with telescoping stabilizers — no tools needed for hookup
- •1,720 lb 3-point lift capacity at 24" aft — handles most Cat I compact implements
- •Independent 540 RPM rear PTO (19 HP on 1626 HST, 21.5 HP on 1626 Shuttle)
- •Optional 2,000 RPM mid-PTO for mid-mount mower decks
7-Year Powertrain Warranty — Industry Best
Mahindra backs every 1600 series tractor with a 7-year/3,000-hour no-deductible powertrain warranty — the longest standard coverage of any compact utility brand sold in the US. Kubota covers comparable L-series models for 3 years; John Deere's 2-series runs 4 years. Mahindra gives you up to four additional years of protection on the engine, transmission, and drivetrain at zero out-of-pocket cost.
- •7-year/3,000-hour powertrain warranty — no deductible on covered repairs
- •Kubota L-series: 3-year warranty; John Deere 2-series: 4-year warranty
- •Covers engine, transmission, front axle, and drivetrain components
