The 9000 series was replaced directly by the 9020 series in 2001. The appearance remained almost unchanged and was old-fashionedly angular compared to other 20-series products. The engines also remained the same, but at the top of the lineup was the 450-horsepower 9520. Models 9320-9520 equipped with John Deere’s 12.5-liter pump-nozzle diesel engine were introduced to Europe. In the USA, the standard transmission was a mechanical 24+8. A 12+4 version without a creeper gear was also available. In Europe, the 9020 series was always equipped with a full powershift transmission, with the number of gears reduced to 18+6. The road speed was increased to 40 km/h. The gear automation was similar to that in the 8020 series. Hydraulic electric valves were standard. In Europe, headland management was also included as standard equipment. An active suspension seat was available as an option.

A new feature for models 9320-9520 was the T-marked durable rubber versions, which were priced at the same level as Challengers of the same power.
