Claas has replaced its sub-100hp Celtis tractors with the new Axos models. The four tractors - called the 310, 320, 330 and 340 - have power ratings of 75hp, 87hp, 92hp and 102hp respectively. There are three different spec levels - C, CL and CX versions. Axos models get a four-cylinder Perkins 1104D-44TA engine with 4.4-litre capacity and a mechanical injection system. All four engines are turbocharged, with the two biggest ones also getting intercooling, and exhaust gas recirculation is fitted to enable them to meet the Tier 3 emissions regulations.
The cab seems spacious with plenty of room for a passenger and controls that are well placed without becoming cluttered. There are two types of cab: the Axos C and CL get a low-profile cab with 2.5m clearance height while the CX cab has 15cm more height and a cab roof with a glass panel. The CX also has air conditioning and an air suspension seat. The company hopes the new range will appeal to a range of customers from small livestock farms through to larger mixed farms. The overall aim of the company is to achieve an 8% UK tractor market share.
