Ursus U7 Series V1.0

Ursus U7 Series V1.0

URSUS U7 SERIES – THE POLISH LEGEND THAT COULD HAVE BEEN
What if Ursus had never abandoned its own tractor designs? What if Polish engineers had been given the opportunity to continue developing their ideas, and Ursus had grown into one of the world’s leading tractor manufacturers?
URSUS U7 Series is an original project presenting a modern generation of Polish tractors from an alternate reality – a world in which the history of the Ursus Mechanical Works took a completely different path.
For those curious about the inspiration behind this series, a short story can be found at the end of the description.

URSUS U7 SERIES – AVAILABLE MODELS
This mod introduces four modern Ursus tractor models to Farming Simulator 25, each offering different engine power and purchase prices.

Model | Power | Price
Ursus U-7160 | 165 HP | $97,800
Ursus U-7220 | 215 HP | $122,800
Ursus U-7260 | 265 HP | $147,800
Ursus U-7330 | 302 HP | $167,800

All four models feature the continuously variable U-CVT transmission, which, in the alternate history of Ursus, represents the result of decades of development in Polish transmission technology, beginning with the pioneering TRIMAT system.

CAB INTERIOR AND INTERACTIVE FEATURES
The tractor interior features an advanced digital dashboard with numerous instruments and warning indicators.

Displayed information includes:
– Current speed and engine RPM.
– Fuel level and consumption.
– Engine load.
– Operating temperature.
– Engine operating hours.
– 4WD and differential lock status.
– PTO operating information.

The cab also includes interactive controls, such as the F–N–R shuttle, selected lighting functions, and opening cab components.
The goal of this project was to create a modern Ursus that not only looks different but also offers a detailed operator environment and an enjoyable everyday farming experience.

FOR THE CURIOUS – THE STORY BEHIND THE URSUS U7 SERIES
The idea behind the U7 Series did not come out of nowhere. It was inspired by a real, although somewhat forgotten, chapter in the history of Polish tractor engineering.

During the late 1960s and early 1970s, Ursus engineers worked on an entirely new family of Polish tractors known as the U Series.
One of the most interesting achievements of this development program was TRIMAT – a Polish three-stage torque amplifier using a planetary gear system that allowed gear ratios to be changed under load.
Developed with the involvement of Polish engineers, including specialists from the Warsaw University of Technology, this technology was incorporated into the prototype Ursus U-710.
It demonstrated that the Polish agricultural machinery industry was capable of developing its own advanced engineering solutions.

However, history took a different turn.
Instead of continuing the development of the original U Series, the decision was made to purchase a Massey Ferguson manufacturing license. The domestic tractor development program was discontinued, and TRIMAT technology never received the opportunity to evolve further in mass-produced Ursus tractors.

But what if that decision had never been made?
In the alternate world presented by this mod, Ursus continues developing and manufacturing its own tractors.
TRIMAT becomes the foundation of Polish transmission engineering, gradually evolving into increasingly advanced Powershift systems and eventually into the continuously variable U-CVT transmission.
Over the following decades, Ursus develops its own engines, electronics, hydraulic systems, and tractor designs, becoming one of the world’s leading agricultural machinery manufacturers.
The U7 Series represents an interpretation of what modern Ursus tractors might look like today if Polish engineering had been given the opportunity to develop without interruption.
Of course, this is a fictional history – but one inspired by the real achievements of Polish engineers.

URSUS U7 Series is a tribute to their work and an attempt to answer one question:
What could we be seeing in Polish fields today if history had taken a different path?
