Same Virtus 100 – 130 / Lamborghini Nitro 100 – 130 VRT / Hürlimann XM 100 – 130 V-Drive

At the beginning of 2013, the Same Virtus, Lamborghini Nitro and Hürlimann XM were introduced. An almost identical tractor was also offered in Deutz‐Fahr’s 5100 series. From the previous line-up, the Same Silver3 and Lamborghini R4 remained alongside the new models as the smaller options. The striking design of the new range was by Giugiaro. Hürlimann returned to its traditional green color, and Lamborghini’s finish—replacing the earlier silver—was now more of a pearly white.

The engines were 3.6-liter Deutz units rated at 99–122 hp. A 127-hp version was added later. Emission regulations were met through exhaust gas recirculation and an oxidation catalyst. The standard gearbox offered 10 forward and 10 reverse gears. With the three-stage creeper you got 30 + 30 speeds, and with additional crawler gears 60 + 60. The creeper was hydraulically operated with adjustable sensitivity, and an automatic creeper-shift feature was available as an option. A 50 km/h version was also offered, so a suspended front axle was among the optional extras. Lamborghini and Hürlimann models could also be specified with a stepless (CVT) transmission.

The rear linkage capacity was 4,650 kg—6,600 kg if auxiliary lift rams were fitted. The hydraulic system was open-center, with a flow rate of either 60 or 90 l/min. In the ECO version, 60 l/min was reached at 1,600 rpm. There were three to five spool valves, and an electronic valve control option was also available. Four standard PTO speeds were fitted. Steering could be upgraded with the SDD system, which—if selected—halved the number of steering-wheel turns from lock to lock. The cab was designated Class E, and Hürlimann quoted an interior noise level of 73 dB. Optional cab suspension was available in either mechanical or pneumatic form. The new range was a textbook example of SDF’s policy of offering modest standard equipment but a wide array of optional refinements at extra cost.
