Power boost

The innovative power-boost concept known as DynamicPerformance or DP for short on the Fendt 211 VFP Vario releases 10hp more power on demand, when it's needed most. This extra power is not tied to driving speeds or special operational tasks, but works purely dynamically. Typically, the engine power of tractors is distributed across numerous power consumers such as the PTO, hydraulics, engine fans and air conditioning. The DP system is able to detect when certain components need more power and then provides a boost with smart control. This system is fantastic for companies that need a powerful narrow gauge tractor with additional power reserves.

Technical specs - 211 V Vario Fendt:

The Vario is equipped with a powerful k.A. Engine which develops 82kW or 109 horse power for the 4WD tractor. Thanks to the DynamicPerformance feature the system can develop an extra 7.4kW.
