Same D.A. 12 – D.A. 30

In 1952, the Samen D.A. models were introduced; these were the brand's first diesel-powered tractors after the war. The designation D.A. came from the engine's air cooling. The 1-cylinder D.A. 12 had a power of 12.5 hp, and the 2-cylinder D.A. 25 had 25 hp. A year later, an even more powerful 1-cylinder D.A. 17 was introduced. The D.A. 25 DT was the world's first mass-produced four-wheel-drive tractor. The transmission in all these tractors was a 4+1 gear system. The 1-cylinder models were just over 2 meters long. At this stage, Same was a very small and financially weak company, but the new tractors proved competitive, and by 1955, 1,750 tractors had already been manufactured.

In 1957, the successor to the D.A. 25 was introduced as the D.A. 30. Its maximum power was 34 hp, it had 6+1 gears, and a differential lock was standard. At the end of the 1950s, Same's color scheme changed: previously, the rims and grill were green. Going forward, the rims remained green, while the grill, chassis, and engine were dark gray.
