Hanomag Perfekt
5 models in this series
Hanomag Perfekt 301 to 401E (1950s) – the four-cylinder standard tractors from Hanover: E for electric start, S for special equipment, throughout a 1.8-litre diesel, 19 to 25 kW, 1.68 to 1.78 t
The Perfekt range was Hanomag's mid-segment standard tractor of the 1950s, built at the Hanover-Linden plant, which had made tractors since the 1930s. All Perfekt models share the same four-cylinder diesel engine of 1.8 litres; the type logic differentiates little by output through the number, but chiefly by equipment: E stands for the version with electric starter instead of a hand crank, S for upgraded special equipment, and the combination 401E(S) unites both in the latest development stage.

The register lists 5 versions with a uniform 1,797 cm³ displacement, outputs of 19 to 25 kW and rated speeds of 2,400 to 2,600 rpm. Service weights range from 1,675 to 1,780 kg, and among the four measured models lengths run from 3,300 to 3,380 mm and widths from 1,560 to 1,580 mm.
As a uniformly engined range, the Perfekt stood for the typical West German post-war mechanisation of mid-size farms, competing with Deutz, Fendt and Eicher, who entered the same market segment with comparable power classes. After the Perfekt, Hanomag followed with the stronger Granit models.
On used tractors, operating hours, the condition of injection pump, cylinder head and clutch, the function of the electric starter on E models, rust on wings and bonnet, and linkage and PTO count; spare parts, as with all early Hanomag tractors, are largely the domain of specialist vintage-tractor dealers.
