The new Fendt 828 Vario SCR is the most fuel-efficient tractor among all tractors ever tested, according to measurements taken in the DLG PowerMix test.
During the DLG PowerMix testing, the Fendt 828SCR tractor’s specific fuel consumption came in at 245 g/kWh, setting a new world record with this figure. During the test, the gap between the first-place Fendt 828Vario tractor and the second-place tractor amounted to a 6.5% better fuel economy.
The outstanding fuel economy achieved is the result of the combined application of Fendt Efficient Technology, SCR engine technology, and the Vario transmission. Alongside SCR technology, AdBlue injection has achieved 14% better fuel economy compared to tractors meeting earlier environmental standards (Tier3a).
The chart below summarises the currently relevant PowerMix specific fuel consumption figures for tractors with continuously variable transmissions. It clearly shows the advantages of tractors meeting Tier3b requirements over those meeting the Tier3a standard, and, of course, it very clearly shows the Fendt 828SCR tractor’s leading position.
This advantage in specific fuel consumption for the 800SCR series (a difference of 16-46 g/kWh) compared to tractors from other manufacturers effectively means a difference in consumption of 2.5 to 7.5 litres per engine hour.
