Discover the new Macchine Trattori – October 2026 issue, featuring all the latest news, technologies and in-depth coverage of the agricultural mechanization sector. Tractors, agricultural machinery, engines and innovations for farming: an up-to-date overview of the main developments shaping the industry.
Cover story
Claas is expanding its product range with the new Axion 8 Cmatic family, which will progressively replace the current Axion 800 Cmatic models. The three new models introduce the latest-generation technical features in the field. Particularly high level of comfort, thanks to cabins extensively isolated from engine vibration and noise. This new generation of tractors therefore aims to redefine comfort standards in the high-end agricultural machinery sector.
Tractors
Fendt is updating its product range by introducing new equipment and functions across its latest tractor families, with particular attention to the evolution of the FendtOne cab concept. New software functions and increasingly integrated information management turn the operator’s station into a true command centre, with the aim of improving comfort, usability and machine control.
The Landini Rex3F series offers a modern interpretation of the compact specialist tractor concept, with four-cylinder engines delivering 68 and 75 hp and several configurations designed to meet different operational requirements. Compact dimensions, good manoeuvrability and a comfort-oriented equipment package make the Rex3F a versatile tractor, designed to work effectively even in the most demanding spaces.
John Deere is looking ahead to model year 2027 by updating the 6M and 6R series with new solutions focused on performance, comfort and precision agriculture. E19 full powershift transmission makes its debut on the 6M, while the 6R 240 and 6R 260 bring outputs of up to 305 hp to the upper end of the range, together with new configuration options. The update further aligns technology and operator interface across the John Deere tractor portfolio.
The new McCormick X7.624 Vt-Drive Digital Edition combines 240 hp, a continuously variable transmission and a particularly comprehensive technology package in a single tractor. Digital farm management, connectivity and remote monitoring systems are integrated with a premium cab, creating a machine designed to combine performance, comfort and operational efficiency.
Big machines
The new Case IH Axial Flow 160 combines introduce technologies previously reserved for the manufacturer’s flagship models to the mid-range combine harvester segment. Two Pro 1200 displays, automatic guidance, fleet management and, above all, the evolution of the Harvest Command system. Capable of automatically adjusting the machine’s main settings – make the Axial Flow 160 increasingly automated and focused on optimising productivity, grain losses and grain quality.
Implements
The Horsch Pronto 6 DC seed drills combine seedbed preparation, soil reconsolidation and seed placement in a single pass. The 460-mm PowerDisc discs, Packer roller and TurboDisc or ParaDisc coulters work in sequence to create uniform sowing depth and seed spacing. While reducing working time and power requirements.
With the new Big Pack Plus series, Krone complements its Big Pack Pro range with a family designed to deliver high baling performance through simpler operation and lower investment costs. The new models retain the main operating features of the higher-end series, while replacing several electronic systems with simpler, easily serviceable mechanical solutions.
With the new Espro 1002 R series, Kuhn is renewing its range of trailed single-hopper seed drills. Designed for both conventional seedbed preparation and minimum-tillage systems. Three, four and six-metre models expand the range of applications, combining high hopper capacity with solutions designed to simplify machine operation and filling.
From under-row management to canopy care, the Rinieri range brings together implements designed for the different stages of mechanical vineyard management. Defoliators, hedge trimmers, pre-pruners, sucker removers and inter-row weeders enable operations throughout the year. With solutions developed to streamline field work and reduce operating time and costs.
Scale Models and Vintage Tractors
From handcrafted reproductions of Landini hot-bulb tractors to the history of one of Fendt’s early tractors. The Scale Models section explores the painstaking work involved in recreating historic machines in every detail. Vintage Tractors traces the origins and development of the Dieselross F20 G, the compact tractor that helped lay the foundations for the German manufacturer’s success.
