CPS – CLAAS POWER SYSTEMS. CLAAS POWER SYSTEMS

Our drive system: the perfect interplay

between optimal components.

Your CLAAS machine is much more than the sum of its

individual parts. Top performance is only possible when all
the parts are ideally matched and work together optimally.

In CLAAS POWER SYSTEMS (CPS), we have brought

together top-quality components to create an intelligent drive
system that sets new standards. Full engine output only when
you need it. Drives that are suited to the way your machines
are used. Fuel-saving technology which quickly pays off.

Dear ARION fans.

My name is Guillaume Charlès and I am a part of
the core project team working on the new ARION
400. I have been involved in the development of
the new ARION right from the word go. I
particularly like the intelligent transmission
system. It selects the right gear to suit the speed
and load – regardless of whether I am driving in
manual or automatic mode.

CLAAS tractor concept. Construction

More agile than ever.

NEW: steering angle-dependent

automatic four-wheel drive.

In addition to speed-dependent automatic four-wheel drive,

the ARION 400 features a steering angle-dependent mode
which you can deploy as and when required.

During field work when soil conditions are dry, steering

angle-dependent automatic four-wheel drive can reduce the
turning circle by up to 8%, allowing you to negotiate the
headland more efficiently and reduce tyre wear. It also enables
you to go easier on the grass sward and your crop during
grass harvesting and field work.

Slim waist for tight turns.

Drawing on its combined experience in developing standard

tractors to over 400 hp, CLAAS has designed a solution
perfectly tailored to your needs.

- 8%
The ARION 400 is an extremely robust and flexible tractor
which makes your work as enjoyable as possible. Its sturdy
cast frame with integral engine oil sump absorbs all the forces
from the front linkage, front loader and front chassis. The front
loader brackets are bolted directly onto the engine frame and
transmission, allowing a front loader or front linkage to be

All the freedom you could wish for. Comfort

Freedom means different things to different people. For some

it means good all-round visibility, for others a more spacious
interior with intelligently arranged controls. Some like to keep
a clear head: combining the unrivalled sense of space with
intelligent digital assistants that reduce the workload and
increase efficiency.

The comfortable ARION cab lives up to all these expectations

and is available in three equipment levels and four styles –
including the PANORAMIC cab. Designed to make your job
easier, so that you can focus on a productive day's work.
And on arguably the best kind of freedom: finishing just a little
bit earlier.
