Deutz-Fahr unveils new 8, 7 and 6K series tractors at EIMA in Bologna
The German-Italian tractor brand Deutz-Fahr presented several new tractor series at the EIMA 2026 agricultural machinery show in Bologna. Series 8 is already in production, series 7 is due to start soon, and 6K production begins in March 2027.
Deutz-Fahr, a German-Italian tractor brand within the SDF group, showed an unusually large number of novelties at the EIMA 2026 agricultural machinery show in Bologna, Italy: an expanded 8 series, an entirely new 7 series, the debuting 6K series and updated 5D and 5DF Keyline tractors. The company said it came to the show intending to present only new products, in line with its "New or nothing" slogan.
Mirco Romagnoli, Deutz-Fahr's marketing head, told journalists that this is probably the first time the company has shown so many new products at once. According to the company, the new range rests on several years of investment in research and development, component production and plant modernisation.
Series 8
The 8 TTV series gains the 8260 TTV and 8280 TTV. The "titans" family now has four models with nominal power from 260 to 340 hp. The new models use a 6-cylinder, 6.7-litre FPT engine: the 8260 TTV reaches 288 hp with the Boost function and the 8280 TTV reaches 313 hp. The tractors have a continuously variable TTV transmission, a speed of up to 60 km/h depending on regulations and configuration, a new front axle and front disc brakes. The SigmaVision cab has an interior volume 30% larger than the previous one, with a 15-inch iCluster and a 13-inch iMonitor 5 display.
Series 7
The all-new 7 TTV series has three models, the 7200, 7230 and 7250 TTV, rated from 200 to 250 hp, with extra power available through Boost. The largest, the 7250 TTV, has a hydraulic pump delivering up to 220 l/min and a rear linkage lift capacity of 10 tonnes. The 7200 and 7230 have a shorter wheelbase for better manoeuvrability.
Series 6K
The 6-cylinder 6K is a universal tractor for mixed and livestock farms and contractors. Its DF6 engine was developed by SDF and is built in Turkey: 5.8 litres, Stage V, 145–175 hp and up to 778 Nm of torque. It comes with either an RCshift or a continuously variable TTV transmission and a MaxiVision Gen2 cab. Rear lift capacity is up to 8,430 kg.
Smaller models and timing
The 5D Keyline series has three models rated 75–105 hp, while the 5DF Keyline, intended for orchards and vineyards, offers 75–115 hp. The 6145C has been raised to 156 hp.
Production of series 8 is already under way, series 7 production is to begin shortly with orders opening soon, and series 6K production starts in March 2027.
