For pulling work, the John Deere Z375R’s 23.5 hp drawbar rating is the number to compare, not the higher 25 hp engine rating.
Drawbar note
The John Deere Z375R combines 23.5 hp drawbar horsepower with 590 lb operating weight, so traction and ballast can matter as much as power for pulling jobs.
Power-to-weight note
The John Deere Z375R’s weight-to-power figure is about 23.6 lb per engine horsepower; that means it is light for its power, so traction and ballast can become the limiting factor before engine power.
Engine note
The John Deere Z375R’s 44.2 cu in engine makes 25 hp, or about 0.6 hp per litre.
Torque / RPM note
Use the John Deere Z375R’s 3,600 rpm rated RPM when comparing engine specs across similar tractors.
