Among the most prestigious awards in the farming machinery sector, Tractor of the Year has for years served as a benchmark that recognizes the best solutions in terms of technological excellence, sustainability, and performance. At the Sala Quadriportico at EIMA International, the closing ceremony for the 2027 edition was held, with BKT taking the stage as the event’s official sponsor.
For the sixth year in a row, the leading Off-Highway tire manufacturer and Tractor of the Year have shared the stage to honor the best tractors in the competing categories, awarding them the title of Tractor of the Year 2027.
The competition started last June in Naples with the inaugural “Let The Challenge Begin” event and continued in the following months as the international jury conducted a careful evaluation. The journey has come to an end: after a rigorous technical evaluation process, the 26 specialized journalists from across Europe selected the six winners. This initiative was supported by BKT, which once again reaffirms its commitment to promoting innovation and the evolution of agricultural mechanization. The award-winning machinery represents some of the most advanced technological solutions in the sector, designed to support farmers in future challenges through innovation, automation, efficiency, and sustainability.
The following tractors have earned the title of Tractor of the Year 2027:
- TotY HighPower – STEYR 6440 CERVUS CVT
- TotY MidPower – Massey Ferguson MF 7S.245 Mark 2
- TotY Utility – CLAAS ARION 4.150 CMATIC
- TotY Specialized – CLAAS NEXOS 2.120 CMATIC
- TotY Sustainable – New Holland T7.270 Methane Power
- TOTYBot – AgXeed AgBot T2 7 Series
Commenting on the event, Lucia Salmaso, Managing Director of BKT Europe, stated: “The demand for mechanization and innovative technologies continues to grow in the agricultural sector. This annual event is a pivotal moment where supply and demand come together to drive a new phase of development and collaboration. Above all, it is an opportunity to look toward the future of agriculture, with a particular focus on soil conservation, Agriculture 4.0, autonomous vehicles, and all those solutions that will help make the sector increasingly efficient and sustainable.”
Fabio Zammaretti, President of Tractor of the Year, added: “For Tractor of the Year, the partnership with BKT represents much more than a sponsorship: it is a strategic cooperation built over the years on mutual trust and a shared vision of the future of agricultural mechanization. BKT’s support allows us to continue developing the TotY project, strengthening its international reach and creating new opportunities for manufacturers, journalists, and industry leaders to meet and exchange ideas. The journey of this edition, which began in Naples with ‘Let the Challenge Begin’ and concluded today at EIMA, demonstrates once again how important it is to be able to count on a partner that believes in the value of innovation and in the continuous growth of our project.”
As Tractor of the Year 2027 comes to a close, a partnership that places BKT alongside one of the industry’s most prestigious awards is renewed. It is a shared commitment to recognizing those manufacturers and technologies that contribute to shaping the future of global agriculture through innovation, sustainability, and performance.
