Fendt Used Tractors: Everything You Need to Know
Fendt is the premium brand among European tractors. The Bavarian manufacturer (now part of AGCO) is recognized as a technological pioneer — especially through the invention of the stepless Vario transmission. Buying used means getting this top quality at a fraction of new prices.
Fendt: Why So Expensive — and Why Still Worth It?
A new Fendt costs between €80,000 and €400,000 depending on the model. Used prices drop significantly while quality remains:
- Vario transmission: The stepless CVT significantly reduces fuel consumption
- FendtONE: Latest cabin technology with integrated farm management
- Long lifespan: Fendt engines designed for 15,000+ hours
- High residual value: Depreciates slower than competing products
