Case IH Steiger 715 Quadtrac arrives

Case IH Australia/New Zealand has announced the arrival of its Steiger 715 Quadtrac tractor, saying the new model is the brand’s most powerful tractor ever and currently offers the highest horsepower of any commercially available tractor in the local market.

With 715 continuous horsepower (527kW) and a peak of 778hp, Case IH says the newcomer delivers “power with purpose, putting more power to the ground to do more in a day, while being agile and versatile enough to navigate a single lane of traffic.”

Case IH ANZ Steiger Product Manager, Justin Bryant, says the new model will make a big impact in Australia’s high-horsepower tractor market.

“With the arrival of the Steiger 715 Quadtrac, combined with the new Steigers we launched to the local market last year, it positions the range as one of Case IH’s most flexible tractor offerings,” he says.

“This is a major and very exciting announcement for our brand and we’re extremely proud to finally have it here and available for Australian and New Zealand customers to order.”

Case IH says the Steiger 715 Quadtrac offers the following features and benefits:

• New heavy-duty undercarriage with a longer track design for improved traction and flotation to match the tractor’s high horsepower, while still reducing soil compaction and delivering more power to the ground
• New FPT 16L TST twin-stage-turbo Tier 2 engine with 23 per cent increase in displacement over the 13L, delivering more power and more torque
• Higher three-point linkage capacity and full engine power through the whole working range of that three-point linkage
• Improved vision from the operator’s cab with newly re-styled cab interior, redesigned bonnet and exhaust and increased LED lighting power
• Increased road speed
• 16-speed PowerDrive powershift transmission
• Increased fuel capacity
• Easier daily service with 31 per cent greater access from the re-designed engine hood, debris shields easily removed without the need for tools, giving greater access around the engine
• Newly designed exterior cab roof styling with integrated overhead grab rails for safe access right around the cab, powerful LED work lighting and integrated antenna for implementing tyre pressure monitoring
• State-of-the-art cab with optional dual Pro 1200 displays for increased functionality, ventilated and heated leather seat, telescoping steering wheel with memory lock, and a leather MultiControl armrest

“This is the largest, most powerful tractor Case IH has produced and as part of the Quadtrac family it further complements the proud history of this dynamic range which has been a leader in tractor power and efficiency since 1996,” says Mr Bryant.

“The large-scale broadacre sector of our industry has been demanding more power, and we’ve delivered with the Steiger 715 Quadtrac, which is ideally suited to what these farmers need, and to our – at times – demanding and challenging conditions.”

The new model joins the 2024 AFS Connect Steiger model range announced last August, spanning Rowcrop Wheeled models from 425 to 525hp, Wideframe Wheeled models from 555 to 645hp, Scraper models from 555 to 645hp; Quadtrac models from 475 to 645hp, and Rowtrac models from 425 to 525hp.

Orders are now open for the new Steiger 715 Quadtrac, which will soon embark upon a national dealership roadshow ahead of local deliveries later this year.
