DIMENSIONS & TIRES
The Claas Axos 320 C tractor features a relatively short wheelbase of 98 inches (248 cm), which enhances maneuverability, making it suitable for tight vineyard or orchard operations. The front tire size of 13.6R24 and rear tire size of 16.9R34 provide a good balance between stability and traction, especially in uneven terrain. However, on steep slopes, the higher center of gravity may pose a challenge for stability and safety during operations.
