John Deere has introduced two popular G-Series motor graders to the European market via the Wirtgen Group distribution network in Germany and France. The 622GP and 672GP will be available in these two countries in early 2019.
The introduction is a result of increased interest in John Deere earthmoving equipment following the Wirtgen Group acquisition in 2017. Understanding motor graders are heavily used in road building applications, the synergies between the Deere models and the Wirtgen portfolio, as well as the thriving French and German markets were determining factors in bringing the machines to the continent.
The 672GP features a 14-foot moldboard weighs in at 44,040 pounds.
The European rollout focuses on the six-wheel drive 622GP and 672GP models that feature Final Tier 4 John Deere diesel engines (6.8L and 9.0L), with 227 (169kW) and 255 (190kW) horsepower, respectively.
The two models will be on display at bauma 2019, April 8-14 in Munich.
