On November 27, the LS Group's industrial machinery and advanced parts manufacturer LS Mtron (CEO Jae-ho Shin) announced that the company has opened a reservation system for the one and only autonomous tractor test-driving center in Korea.

In the beginning of this year, LS Mtron built the East Mega Center on a lot of approximately 4,000 pyeong(13,000 m2) inGimcheon, Gyeonsangbuk-do. The East Mega Center features a tractor test-driving space of approximately 900 pyeong(3,000 m2) along with a product exhibition hall, a metropolitan maintenance center, and the Gyeongbuk branch office. Anyone, including farmers, people looking to return to rural areas, and students, can now experience the autonomous tractors that operate without an operator.

Generally, customers wish to try operating the tractor they are purchasing first to see if it is the right product for them, but it is difficult to testdrive tractors in reality. This is especially true for autonomous tractors featuring the latest advanced agricultural technology, as opportunities for testdriving are even more scarce. The East Mega Center is the only facility in Korea where

The tractor test-driving experience will consist of the flagship models SmarTrek, XP, and MT5. Autonomous tractor MT7 SmarTrek comes equipped with the rotary, hiller*, and vinyl mulcher for the demonstration and experience of bank* setup, and even allows people to experience farm work in comparison to other traditional tractors. Through this space, customers can directly experience autonomous farming and immediately purchase the tractors afterwards. Customers can also experience making bales* utilizing the brake connected feature of the 117 HP tractor equipped with an automatic mode and cultivating (rotary) work with the latest technology in proportionally controlled leveling control, as well as the MT5 tractor that features a medium HP engine.
