Renault CERES-Baureihe

The register lists 7 live models, from the Ceres 65 (A) to the Ceres 95 (A), built between 1992 and 1998. Output ranges from 39.7 to 61.1 kW, weight from 2,805 to 3,330 kg, displacement from 3,117 to 4,156 cm3, across three- and four-cylinder engines.

Engine base and displacement largely match the preceding MX series, but Renault noticeably reworked the cab, hydraulics and control layout for the new decade.

The Ceres series positioned itself as a solid mid-range line between the more compact Temis models and the larger Ares models introduced in the same period.

When buying a used Ceres, clutch and gearbox condition, the tightness of the reworked hydraulics, and rust on the new cab and mudguards matter; since the engine base matches the preceding MX series, wear parts for the injection system and cooling are usually identical and available. Parts have run through the Claas parts network since Renault Agriculture's dissolution. PTO and three-point hitch correspond in this power class to ISO 730 Category I to II, at 540 rpm. As the category rises, the lift-arm pin diameter grows too, which can make older, lower-category implements incompatible.
