Smaller engine in the 200 but same idea alright. I'm sure they've upgraded bits and pieces of componentsIs a t7 200 not just a modernised tm155?

Took me a few runs of the video but I think I understand the basics of how a Vario works now

And here is the ZF Smatic
Any advantages one over the other?
You are right to a point, the hydrostatic controls the speed of the mechanical parts but at certain speeds the hydraulic input is very high and can be 100% on a fendt I think. Where as the Steyr one never has more than 30% hydraulic input and there's 4 points between 0-50 where there is no hydro input, as in the hydro motor is more or less stationary.I think the Fendt Vario is a mechanical drive controlled Hydraulically and is not a Hydrostatic drive where oil is doing the driving . A lot of people think there is power loss in a vario and there is but it is not in the drive itself but in the control hydraulic system .
i wonder what brought this on and will other companies do d same https://www.fendt.com/us/4431
But saying they won't service them or provide parts is abit rich. I see olf on YouTube had a hydro problem on a 8530 he imported from the uk and john deere paid for half.
Theres a couple of lads from holland i think that specialise in importing tractors to d usa. D speed thing i can understand as any equipment iv used had no brakes at all. Everything was left to tractor brakes i always thought it was silly but surely they could be plugged in and pull down top speedExport of used tractors from Europe to NA. I know of one farmer in Canada who bought a couple of Fendts from Parris.
Just a case of covering their arse if there is an accident involving a tractor not meeting the local market safety standards.
