It's truly the "Year of the Tractor" for Case IH as the company announced seven new or redesigned tractor models at this year's Farm Progress Show.

The headliner, the new Steiger 715 Quadtrac, is the company's most powerful tractor ever with a 715 hp-rated, 778 peak hp engine. (715 rated at a 2100 rpm, 778 peak rated at 1900 rpm). The Steiger 715 sets a new bar for performance, delivering more power to the ground in a nimble four-track design.

In Farmall's 100th year, the brand also provided a glimpse of what's in store for the next century of Farmall by unveiling the Farmall 75C Electric. This new tractor is transforming the industry with the smartest electric tractor, the manufacturer said.

The Farmall 75C Electric offers diesel-like performance with an average 4-hour run time and fast recharging, plus significant operational savings.

In addition to the Steiger 715 and Farmall 75C Electric, Case IH shared news and updates on the Farmall 25SC Subcompact, Farmall 25A, Farmall M series, Optum 340, Early Riser 2120, Axial-Flow 160 series combine, Patriot 50 series sprayer and Trident 5550 combination applicator. The company also is launching a Pro 1200 Guidance Kit system.

The Steiger 715 Quadtrac, already open for orders, delivers built-in power and speed to cover more ground in less time. This newest Steiger model introduces the new heavy-duty Quadtrac undercarriage that offers increased traction to keep up with the engine's horsepower. But it also provides the maneuverability needed to go anywhere, with better visibility and roadability to improve the driving experience in and out of the field. Plus, with a modified hood, redesigned exhaust and LED lighting, the sight lines are a thing of beauty.

Axial-Flow Combine, Early Riser Planter

Narrow operating windows make maximizing productivity essential during planting and harvest, regardless of farm size.

Both equipment solutions deliver advanced technology to small- and mid-scale operations at a price point that makes sense for their operation.
