Fahr D 400 – D 540
In 1954, the Fahr D 45 L was replaced by the model D 400 C. The hydraulics were updated and the front axle was now suspended. The engine was the same 3-cylinder Deutz as before, as was the weak A-17 transmission.
A year later, the D 400 A was introduced, which had a stronger ZF A-23 transmission. Its wheelbase was 22 cm longer than that of the C model. Alongside the A model, a lower B model intended for export was also produced.
In 1955, the D 60 L was also replaced by a lightly updated D 540.
When Fahr’s production ended in Germany, manufacturing continued at a factory established in Argentina. There, based on this series, a 100-horsepower D 800 equipped with an 8.0-liter Deutz six-cylinder engine was produced in the late 1960s.
