Fendt has added the new e100 Vario electric tractor to its offering in the UK & Ireland.
Using the same battery unit as the narrow e107 V, the Fendt e100 S Vario has been designed for the utility, amenity and leisure sectors.
At 2.16m wide and 2.64m high with standard tyres the Fendt e100 S Vario is available in two specifications - Profi and Profi+.
The drive train of the Fendt e100 S Vario features a battery with an electric motor and Fendt’s 40kph Vario transmission which works in three driving modes. The maximum power range according to ECE R85 is 68hp in Eco mode.
In Dynamic mode, up to 75hp is available and, at peak drive power, the machine provides up to 90hp for short periods in Dynamic+ mode with a maximum torque of 347 Nm.
The Fendt e100 S Vario can be optionally equipped with the Fendt Cargo 3X65 front loader. The design of the Fendt Comfort cab is optimised for use with a front loader, with a roof window that offers a 100deg viewing angle.
For businesses generating renewable energies, the e100 S Vario is virtually CO2 neutral, which means CO2 emissions and the tractor's running costs are significantly reduced. Further cost savings are realised by not having exhaust gas after-treatment, engine filters and engine oil to run the machine.
The electrically powered tractor is quieter than machines with a conventional diesel engine for extended operating time in noise-sensitive residential or urban areas.
In line with the automotive standard, Fendt e100 models are equipped with a CCS2 socket compatible with standard wall outlets or public charging points; the Type 2 plug also enables charging via alternating current (AC) up to 22 kW.
There is a range of other charging options; using a fast charger the battery can be charged from 20 to 80 per cent in around 45 minutes.
Electric Fendts are equipped with 340/70R24 tyres for the front axle and 480/70R30 tyres for the rear axle, as standard.
Fendt and Trelleborg have jointly developed the TM1 Eco Power tyre especially for this series and 65% of the components come from renewable or recycled sources. The tyres feature a particularly low rolling resistance in order to be energy-saving and thus extend the battery life.
