This page gathers the Foton tractors the register could not assign to a named range. Foton – in full Beiqi Foton Motor of Beijing – is best known as a commercial-vehicle maker and builds farm machinery through its Foton Lovol subsidiary; the register holds both FT- and TE-numbered types and models such as Cougar, Eurostar, Interstar, Greenstar and North Star, under which various importers sell the same production in their own markets. The model numbers mostly track the power class in hp (FT254 about 25 hp, FT504 about 50 hp), G and other letters denote equipment and drive variants.

Foton is one of the big Chinese farm-machinery suppliers and mainly serves export markets in Africa, South America and Eastern Europe, where the tractors are often sold under local trade names rather than the Foton brand itself.
