Recorded operating weight runs from 5,050 to 7,400 kg, and top speed of the listed variants spans 40.1 to 50.1 km/h. Besides conventional powershift gearboxes, CLAAS also offers stepless CMATIC transmission within the Arion family, identifiable from the corresponding model designations in the register.
Within the CLAAS line-up, the Arion sits between the smaller Axos and Celtis models and the larger Axion series, aimed at farms with mixed requirements spanning arable work, transport and front-loader tasks. Buyers of a used Arion should pay attention to gearbox variant and cab equipment, as the range expanded considerably across model years.
With rated outputs from 77 to 154 kW, the Arion falls within ISO 730 Category II to III for the rear three-point hitch, with a standard dual-speed power take-off at 540 and 1,000 revolutions per minute. The John Deere diesel engines come from a manufacturer that remains active today and still supplies spare parts for these model years, including injection components.
