According to profi magazine (issue 3/2023), a total of 30,344 tractors were registered in Germany in 2022. This means Germany’s tractor market shrank by 4,128 units compared with 2021. Profi cites a shortage of spare parts, caused by the long-term effects of the Covid-19 pandemic, as the reason.
Fendt notes that, as in 2021, Fendt led the new-registration statistics in Germany in 2022 across every power class from 201 hp upward. In 2022, in the 201–300 hp power class, 1,773 Fendt tractors were registered – 644 machines more than the runner-up.
As profi magazine writes: “Green dominates the table of the most popular models. The versatile Fendt 724 Vario tractor was registered no fewer than 887 times in 2022.”
The report notes that, for the eighth time running, the Fendt 724 Vario Gen6 takes first place among the most-registered tractors in Germany, and as the “Nation’s Favorite” it also tops the overall list of new registrations.
As in previous years, the Fendt 700 Vario and Fendt 500 Vario series were especially popular among German farmers in 2022. In second place among Fendt’s most popular tractors is the Fendt 516 Vario, with 712 registrations in Germany. As in 2021, third place goes to the Fendt 718 Vario, with 415 newly registered machines.
“The Fendt 700 Vario and Fendt 500 Vario series stand out for their compactness, maneuverability, and flexibility. That’s exactly what makes them the most popular among German farmers. On top of that comes FendtONE with a full set of Smart Farming options, ensuring efficient, resource-saving, economical operation. In 2022, we introduced a fully updated seventh generation of the Fendt 700 Vario, with the flagship model Fendt 728 Vario. With this, we want to build on the success of the sixth generation. The results of the German Tractor League, and the overall win in the registration statistics for tractors rated 51 hp and above, confirm that professional farmers and contractors in Germany trust Fendt.”
