Claas Balers Turn 30
Claas built its first variable chamber round baler - the Variant 100 - in 1996, so 2026 marks 30 years and the fifth generation of the Variant name, recently complemented by the new Cerex Series introduced in 2025.
This full-size Ranger is the first electric vehicle Polaris has developed through its technical partnership with Zero Motorcycles, a leader in electric power and battery technology, with the programme on target to launch the first new model in early 2022.
As part of the Polaris ‘rEV’d up strategy’, the all-new, full-size electric Ranger spearheads the company’s long-term powersports electrification plans.
Design and development efforts for the electric Ranger are underway in Wyoming, Minnesota with manufacturing to take place at Polaris’ facility in Huntsville, Alabama.
Founded in 1954, Polaris’ product line-up includes side-by-side off-road vehicles, Indian Motorcycles, and snowmobiles, selling in more than 100 countries with worldwide sales of US$7 billion in 2020. Polaris New Zealand is a wholly owned subsidiary of Polaris Inc. and operates two divisions, Polaris off-road vehicles and Indian Motorcycles, with a network of over 33 dealers across New Zealand.
