Following its Tractor of the Year 2024 and Farm Machine 2024 (Large Tractor Category) awards at Agritechnica, followed by an AE50 award in the United States, Claas's Xerion 12 Terra Trac has also recently been awarded the Grand Prix in the International Product Development category at the AGROmashEXPO in Hungary.

“It is absolutely extraordinary to receive four awards for a new product in such a short period space of time,” said Dr. Martin von Hoyningen-Huene, chief technology officer at Claas Group and responsible for the Tractors and Implements division. “Thanks to its unique features, the large tractor sets benchmarks in many ways that help our customers work even more productively and efficiently while reducing the burden on the driver and the environment.“

The new Xerion 12 series is positioned above the 4200, 4500 and 5000 models. After what the company describes as a successful start of production at the main plant in Harsewinkel, an initially limited number of machines will be built this year and marketed in the core target markets. It will be introduced in other sales regions at the same time. 

"There is great interest in the new series,” explained Steffan Kurtz, global product team Large Tractor. “After all, the Xerion 12 series not only offers the most powerful four-wheel tractors with continuously variable transmissions on the market, but also sets new standards in this segment in terms of efficiency and comfort.”
