Abstract

CLAAS XERION 12.650 TERRA TRAC is one of the most powerful and innovative tractors in the world, which has recently appeared in Ukraine. With a maximum engine displacement of 12.8 liters, this tractor is equipped with a powerful 6-cylinder engine that provides 650 horsepower. This makes it possible to work effectively even in the most difficult conditions, which makes the model indispensable for large agricultural enterprises. An important feature of the CLAAS XERION 12.650 TERRA TRAC is a drive system for the entire contact surface area, which allows you to reduce pressure on the soil and prevent its compaction. This significantly increases the efficiency of work on soils sensitive to overloads. According to the design characteristics, the tractor has an extremely powerful hydraulic system, which allows you to work effectively with a variety of mounted and trailed implements. The control system based on the latest technologies allows the operator to precisely adjust the tractor's operating parameters to achieve maximum productivity. CLAAS XERION 12.650 TERRA TRAC is also equipped with a comfortable cabin with high standards of comfort, as well as a monitoring system that allows the operator to receive up-to-date information about the tractor's operation. Thanks to all these characteristics, the tractor is an excellent choice for large agricultural enterprises that need powerful, reliable and efficient equipment to perform various agricultural works.
