Tractor factory in Le Mans

The Factory of the Future.

CLAAS has developed and distributed implement carriers and system vehicles since the late 1950s. After the first steps with the CLAAS Huckepack and HSG Trac, the company started to develop a large tractor and system vehicle with infinitely variable main transmission in 1978 – the XERION. With the acquisition of Renault’s tractor business in 2003, CLAAS was able to make the company’s long-standing ambition come true: to have a comprehensive range of tractors in its portfolio.

CLAAS did not lose any time to make its name as one of the world’s leading tractor manufacturers. The French factory in Le Mans is its main location for the production of CLAAS tractors. Every year, about 10,000 units roll off its production lines. CLAAS Tractor SAS has developed highly successfully since 2003 because we are fully focused on our customers’ satisfaction. Production numbers are expected to increase substantially over the coming years, and the factory has been extensively modernised to support this. Since 2018, more than €40 million have been invested to transform the facility into an Industry 4.0 factory where robotics meets the Internet of Things (IoT) and virtual reality.
