Claas has launched the Arion 4 Cmatic, a range of four tractors with power outputs up to 160hp and featuring Cmatic continuously variable transmission.
The company claims the Arion 4 Cmatic is the ‘smallest large tractor’ in its range, powered by the latest-generation Cummins four-cylinder engine with a 4.5 l displacement, delivering up to 160 hp maximum power output and up to 646 Nm maximum torque.
As with the larger Arion tractors, peak power and maximum torque are available across a wide rev range of around 500 rpm and are accessible even at low engine speeds from around 1,100 rpm. The new dynamic power management system automatically adapts engine power to a wide variety of operating situations and distributes it via the transmission, power take-off shafts, hydraulics and spool valves precisely to where it is needed at any given moment.
All models are equipped with a newly developed, continuously variable Cmatic gearbox with power split. This comes with the adaptive drivetrain management system with Auto Load Anticipation. Smart Loading is also available for the first time for automated front-loader operations.
The Arion 4 Cmatic is digitally connected to Claas connect, with the addition of Automatic Documentation with profitability analysis. When engaged, the function generates automatic entry suggestions based on machine data. Customers can activate or deactivate the function individually for each tractor via a dedicated button on the terminal, offering maximum flexibility to suit different operational requirements and customer preferences.
