Pininfarina is not a name commonly associated with agricultural machinery, yet the Italian coachbuilder designed one such vehicle at the request of New Holland, which needed a grape harvester. The tractor itself is no wider than 1.5 meters and moves on tires equipped with grousers for improved stability and maneuvering on soil. Its chassis and body shape enable moving along the narrow paths between the grapevines without hurting them.
The cab is styled after a champagne bottle
with the driver’s seat elevated above the plantation level for better
visibility. Panoramic glass improves it even further, and assorted visual
accents lend the tractor a modern and functional appearance.
Pininfarina did not disclose any details
besides saying the tractor is all-electric. It also remains uncertain how many
more units will be built, if any.
