Added to the top end of the 7S range launched in September, the new 210hp tractor with its 2.88m wheelbase is said to provide the perfect bridge to the larger-framed (3.05m wheelbase) and 7.4-litre engine-powered 205hp 8S.205.

The original plan was probably to launch the 7S.210 at Agritechnica, which should have taken place in Hannover in Germany last week. Instead, we had to make do with a press release.

The new flagship uses the same 6.6-litre six-pot AGCO Power block as the rest of the range. EPM automatically boosts the power up to 220hp for transport, PTO work and to meet high hydraulic demands.

Efficient or Exclusive

Equipped with the Dyna-VT box as standard, both Exclusive (includes front axle and mechanical cab suspension) and Efficient (active mechanical cab suspension) specifications are available for the 7S.210, which shares much of the rest of its spec with the other four models.

This includes the new cab, armrest, Multipad controller, Datatronic 5 terminal, air conditioning system, air-suspended seat (heated seat option), LED lights (option to fit up to 16 work lights) with the rest of the range.

Datatronic 5 not only manages all the tractor functions, but also with ISObus connectivity and GPS signal, it runs Guide and Section Control. A new option enables the radio, mobile phone and media be operated through the screen, with inputs via Bluetooth, USB or Aux lead. This alerts operators to incoming calls and, as in a car, connects to and operates other devices.

Like other 7S tractors, the 7S.210 can be fully connected with Connect telemetry, including a five-year subscription as standard. This real-time monitoring system delivers data on fuel usage, machine location and error code monitoring. A new Geofencing function improves logistics management and security by sending alerts to smart phones and devices if and when machines exit or enter pre-defined areas.

The options list is also the same as the other 7S models, and includes the Visio roof, and new E-Loader option. With a 14.0t GVW, the turning radius of the 7S.210 is from 4.93m and rear lift capacity is 9.6t (front 4.0t).
