Video: CLAAS | The new AXION generation. Built for every day and every job.

A new day begins, and with it come new challenges. ????? Now it’s all about decisions, not excuses. To make this work, tractors in modern agriculture must, above all, deliver reliably – 24/7 if necessary. The new AXION generation has been developed precisely to meet these tough demands. ??

Built to meet and even exceed the expectations of the most demanding users. ??

For drivers, the new AXION series offers the very best in technology. A completely new sense of space in one of the largest cabs in its class ensures optimal working conditions during long working days. To enable maximum focus, external noise has been consistently reduced to a minimum. ??

Equipped with more automation and assistance, these large tractors are ready for all farm operations. Thanks to the digital connection to CLAAS connect, you always have everything at a glance. ?? CEBIS connect also allows all functions to be controlled individually and precisely. The next step towards autonomy has thus already been successfully taken. ??

With extremely powerful hydraulics and improved fuel efficiency, the new AXION series is ready for anything – no matter what lies ahead. And with the right machine settings provided by CEMOS Assistance, low engine speeds even under full load, and balanced weight distribution, you’ll always stay in the green zone. ??

?? At harvest time, when it really counts, only uncompromising operational reliability matters. With even greater fuel capacity, the reliable and tried-and-tested CMATIC continuously variable transmission, and extended service intervals, the machine remains productive. ?? Maximum success requires a strong team of man and machine. It requires tractors that make your investment pay off. Because that is the only way to turn expectations into reality
