4-4-2: Four driven wheels up front, another four providing strong support behind, and two Articulating sections - with such an inventive formation, the agro XXL could soon be the star performer in Deutz-Fahr's line-up

摘要

If four wheels are good, then surely eight must be better. At least, that's the rationale behind the XXL-labelled eight-wheel drive tractor unveiled to jaw-dropping reactions at last year's Agritechnica show in Germany. If it goes into production - and the Same Deutz-Fahr Group's acquisition of the design suggests there is every chance it will - the AgroXXL 1630 will be among the highest-powered tractors in existence at 440kW (600hp), It will also be the first production tractor to use a four-axle, eight-wheel chassis layout.
