Fahr – other models: German tractors outside the named ranges, from the D 17 and D 25 to the D 30 and D 270 B, 8.8 to 123 kW, Deutz and Mercedes-Benz engines from Gottmadingen before the Deutz-Fahr merger

This page gathers the Fahr tractors the register could not assign to a named range – tractors of the brand from Gottmadingen on Lake Constance, founded in 1870 by Johann Georg Fahr as a maker of mowers and threshers, which entered tractor manufacture in the 1930s. In 1968 Fahr merged with Deutz to form Deutz-Fahr; the D types gathered here date from before that merger. The type logic is simple: D stands for diesel, the following number gives roughly the power class (D 17 around 17 hp, D 25 around 25 hp, D 30 around 30 hp), N and NA mark standard-track and four-wheel-drive versions, H the row-crop tractor with high ground clearance and narrow track, W the vineyard tractor. Early on, Fahr also sourced engines from Mercedes-Benz – the OM 636 series appears alongside the company's own Deutz engines – before the brand switched entirely to air-cooled Deutz diesels after the merger.

The register lists here 29 versions with 8.8 to 123 kW from one- to six-cylinders of 815 to 2,660 cm³, unladen weights from 1,050 to 2,130 kg, lengths from 2,470 to 3,070 mm, widths from 1,515 to 1,800 mm and rated speeds from 1,550 to 2,000 rpm.

Alongside Deutz, Hanomag and Eicher, Fahr was one of the defining West German tractor brands of the post-war decades, with strongholds in southern Germany and exports to southern Europe; the air-cooled Deutz engines that became standard after the merger shaped the brand's technical legacy into the Deutz-Fahr era.

On used tractors, the early Mercedes-engined models call for checking the cooling system and injection pump, the air-cooled Deutz engines the condition of the blower and cooling fins, plus the state of clutch, gearbox and hydraulics and rust on sheet metal and mudguards; parts for the Deutz engines run through today's Deutz-Fahr network, for the Mercedes units only through specialists.
