2023 GVM Mako Series 445

The Mako 445, 445NT, and 455 sprayers are some of the latest members of the GVM equipment family. The smallest, most compact self-propelled sprayer in the marketplace; the Mako is the perfect machine to get into fields early, when grounds are still wet.

Small, stable, and nimble, the Mako features a 425 gallon polyethylene product tank, multiple boom options, 36 or 46 inches of crop clearance, and a tight turning radius. Its light footprint results in minimal, yield-robbing soil compaction. Powered by a Cummins Stage V, 154 horsepower engine paired with an automatic Allison five-speed transmission, the Mako’s robust powertrain provides aggressive reliability to keep you in motion all season long. The Mako is simple enough for first time applicators, yet smart enough for the pros.
