Vredo, a Dutch-based company, displayed one of the largest new machines at the show.

Although it is very unlikely there will be many (if any) ever sold in Ireland, we had to cover the machine simply due to its scale.

The new machine is powered by a 16-litre Deutz V8 engine capable of churning out a significant 687hp.

The large machine comes with all round suspension, all-wheel steering and heavy-duty axles with external brake discs.

Although pictured with a slurry tank mounted on the platform to the rear, these machines can be retrofitted with a large number of implements such as spreader boxes (dung, lime etc), sugar beet boxes or even wood chippers.

According to Vredo, there was no suitable CVT transmission on the market for its new machine.

As a result the company opted to design and build its own VVT700 continuously variable transmission.

The transmission has two speed ranges, 0-20km/h and 0-50km/h. The machine is available to order in two- or three-axle configurations.

It’s rumoured that the list price for this fully specced machine is in the region of €850,000.
