The series is the seventh generation of the Fendt 700 Vario and contains five models, being the 720 Vario, 722 Vario, 724 Vario, 726 Vario and 728 Vario covering engine powers of 147-206kW (203-283hp)
On the new series, the Fendt DynamicPerformance (DP) extra power concept releases up to 15kW of extra power in the Fendt 728 Vario DP via a demand-dependent control system.
The top model thus achieves a maximum performance of up to 226kW (303hp). The extra power concept is not tied to driving speed or special application pick-ups and functions purely dynamically, even when PTO work is carried while the tractor is stationary.
Under the bonnet is a six-cylinder AGCO Power engine with 7.5 litre capacity which Fendt says has been completely redesigned for the power spectrum.
Exhaust gas after-treatment takes place via a diesel oxidation catalytic converter (DOC), diesel particulate filter (DPF) and with selective catalytic reduction (SCR) without exhaust gas recirculation. It meets the required Stage V exhaust emission standard for Europe and in addition, maintenance-free hydraulic tappets are installed in the engine.
Intelligently controlled all-wheel drive management is one of the advantages of Fendt VarioDrive. The drive train eliminates the need for manual switching when changing between field and road operations.
The tractors also have the low-speed Fendt iD concept where the rated engine speed is a miserly 1700 rpm.
The new Fendt 726 and 728 Vario reach a top speed of up to 60 km/h at just 1450 rpm. At 50 km/h the engine speed is 1200 rpm and at 40 km/h it is only 950 rpm.
