The largest model of the 600 series was initially the 698, which was based on the engine of the 595 and was not brought to Finland. However, in the summer of 1984, a lightweight and compact 6-cylinder 699 was introduced in Finland, producing 95 hp. Unlike other 600 series models, the 699 featured a 13" ceramic clutch plate, a trailer brake valve, and a lifting capacity of 3,700 kg. In 1985, the 698T was introduced, equipped with a wastegate turbo and a 13" clutch with power equivalent to the turbo models built in Finland. In Germany, where other 600 series models were not sold, the 698 was known as the 1004 and the 698T as the 1004T.
