Low costs per hour<br />

When comparing the actual costs involved in<br />

investing in a tractor, it is important to consider<br />

the overall costs and operating costs per hour<br />

or acre. These include fuel consumption, which<br />

is the single greatest factor amounting to more<br />

than 50% of costs, write-off including resale<br />

value, servicing, repairs and miscellaneous costs<br />

such as insurance or housing.<br />

Thanks to innovative drive technology and the<br />

latest in engine technology, you profit from the<br />

exceptionally favorable operating costs per hour<br />

(variable costs) of a <strong>Fendt</strong>. In the overall cost<br />

calculation, this results in lower costs per worked<br />

acre or transported ton per mile, the only way to<br />

truly calculate your success.<br />

Sample calculation, based on fuel consumption data for a <strong>Fendt</strong> <strong>Vario</strong> and a competitor’s tractor, which appeared in<br />

the European farm equipment magazine Top Agrar 12/2004. (Competitor’s fuel consumption is 1.16 g/h (4.4 L/h)<br />

more than the <strong>Fendt</strong>). Calculations based on a diesel price of 1 euro per liter and 8,000 operating hours in 10 years.<br />

Award-winning innovation and design<br />

In addition to being honored with a gold medal at the 2005 Agritechnica show for its innovative technology, the <strong>900</strong><br />

<strong>Vario</strong> also received three further design awards. Remarkable here is that the standards for the international “reddot<br />

design award” are very high and the “DesignPreis” award from the Federal Republic of Germany is only given to<br />

award winners of other design prizes. Other competitors for these awards for which <strong>Fendt</strong> received the “best of the<br />

best“ in the product category “Transports”, were no less than famous luxury sedan and sports car manufacturers.<br />

This is a sign that technical innovation goes hand-in-hand with leading design at <strong>Fendt</strong>.<br />

The technological innovations and sophisticated<br />

details in the new <strong>900</strong> <strong>Vario</strong> are clad<br />

in a new dynamic appearance. The distinctive<br />

contours combine both form and function<br />

equally.<br />

At the same time, the major objective in<br />

the development of the <strong>900</strong> <strong>Vario</strong> was to<br />

build a tractor that enhances productivity–whether<br />

in heavy-duty field operations<br />

or on the road.<br />

New design for a new power class<br />

Based on a joint design study with Porsche,<br />

<strong>Fendt</strong> engineers have developed a completely<br />

new look for the <strong>900</strong> <strong>Vario</strong>.<br />

Essential design elements are a narrowed<br />

hood and newly designed lighting on both the<br />

hood and cab. Great efforts were taken to pair<br />

optimum functionality with the most modern<br />

design in all details.<br />
