Pulling efficiency, comfort, connectivity and sustainability convinced the International Tractor of the Year jury at Agritechnica, the world’s leading ag equipment trade fair, to award the new XERION 12.650 TERRA TRAC from CLAAS with its renowned award, beating three other competitors.

CLAAS is celebrating half a million combine harvesters built since 1936 – and is producing several anniversary machines from the LEXION, TRION, EVION and DOMINATOR lines at three production facilities on three continents. Two anniversary machines (LEXION combines) will roll off the production line in Omaha Nebraska, bound for farms in the US and Canada.

OMAHA, Neb., (July 16, 2024) – CLAAS unveiled their LEXION 8900 TERRA TRAC for the first time on North American soil today at the Ag in Motion farm show in Saskatchewan, Canada. “More than a machine,” the top model in the LEXION lineup offers the most available horsepower in their largest combine range, delivering 779 max horsepower (SAE) from a highly efficient 16.2L MAN engine with DYNAMIC POWER – an increase of 89 hp over the LEXION 8800 model.
