TYM North America Kicks off 75th Diamond Anniversary Celebration

February 2026 – TYM North America proudly launches a range of high-horsepower compact utility tractors and national sponsorship for our 75th year in business.

Founded in 1951 in South Korea, the story of TYM is one of growth and innovation in the agriculture market. With engineering and production in Korea, we assemble and sell tractors in more than 40 countries. In addition to manufacturing agricultural machinery bodies, engines, and attachments, TYM has developed our proprietary MY TYM telematics platform which is included on all new models moving forward. Additionally, we are committed to developing autonomous driving technology for the future.

In North America, TYM has invested for growth—in our people and with four assembly, service and training facilities across the U.S. in Georgia, Texas, Pennsylvania, and Oregon. Supported by a robust network of authorized dealers across the United States and Canada, we embark on our next 75 years with a steadfast commitment to customer satisfaction, quality engineering, and industry‑leading innovation.

Our first significant action for our 75th anniversary is the launch of two new Series 5 tractor models at the National Farm Machinery Show, the T5068 and T5074.

T5068 (Series 5): The T5068 retains the rugged power and functionality of its predecessor, the T654, while introducing thoughtful upgrades. Powered by a 68-horsepower DEUTZ engine, the T5068 delivers impressive lift capacity and exceptional operator comfort. Its spacious cab is equipped with HVAC and defrost for year-round comfort, along with an ergonomic joystick for precise, intuitive handling. And T5068 features MY TYM smart telematics, providing advanced monitoring and operational efficiency.

“We designed the T5068 to meet the demands of modern operators, and we packed it with useful standard features. For example, we included a 6-port hydraulic Walvoil® 6P and a 2-button joystick all standard to run more complex implements like a grapple or post-hole digger,” said Keith Wainwright, Director of Marketing, Product Strategy, and Sales Planning.

  • 3122 lbs. loader lift capacity
  • 68 Engine HP and 63 PTO HP
  • Standard 6-Port Valve for Advanced Multifunction Control

T5074 (Series 5): This is an entirely new model for TYM, designed specifically for customers who want the strength of a larger tractor, but less complexity. This unit is all about getting the job done with ease and simplicity. Powered by a dependable 74-horsepower Yanmar diesel engine, the T5074 delivers power you need for tough jobs. It’s built from the ground up for easy maintenance over the long haul. If you are looking for a straight-forward machine that provides the essentials with fewer distractions and technology, this is your new tractor.

  • 5 Engine HP and 60 PTO HP

Our second big announcement for 2026 is TYM North America’s dynamic new partnership with ThorSport Racing for the 2026 NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series. TYM will proudly join forces as a primary sponsor of 2-time series champion Ben Rhodes and the iconic No. 99 truck. After joining us to help launch our new tractors at the National Farm Machinery Show in Louisville, Ben will kick off the NASCAR season with the TYM at the Daytona International Speedway.

This milestone marks a powerful step forward in expanding national awareness of the TYM brand, aligning our heritage of performance and reliability with one of the sport’s most respected teams and drivers. The partnership also arrives at a meaningful moment, as TYM celebrates its 75th anniversary and looks ahead to an ambitious future.

“We are honored to welcome Ben Rhodes not only as a TYM‑backed driver, but also as a new TYM tractor owner—officially joining the TYM family on and off the track. With ThorSport Racing’s championship pedigree and Ben’s proven talent, we anticipate an unforgettable 2026 season and a winning partnership for years to come,” said Richard Mancinelli, North America Marketing Leader.
