AgrotechImporter Hissink is bringing the Rigitrac SKE 40 Electric to the Dutch market, a tractor designed as an electric machine from the ground up that it says runs four to six hours a charge and starts at €190,000.
A two-week test of the Fendt e107 Vario against a diesel 207 Vario in Norway and the Netherlands found the electric tractor stronger, quieter and far more efficient, with two to two-and-a-half hours of heavy PTO work per charge its main limit.
AgrotechThe Valencia start-up plans 96 units a year at first and 1,000 in the longer term; the four-motor, battery-swapping Thor 3 is to be the first production-ready version.
