In 1974, the Fendt lineup was expanded at the lower end with the new 200 series, primarily intended for vineyard and fruit cultivation. The 200 series included various narrow and low special versions, but here only the models designed for field use are discussed. Following Fendt’s tradition, factory-installed mowers and front loaders were also available for the 200 series.

The 200 series was equipped with KHD air-cooled engines. The fully synchronized transmission had 13+4 gears, just like in the larger models, but the road gear speed was only 25 km/h. As an option, a 14th gear was available to reach a speed of 30 km/h. Power take-off (PTO) speeds were 540/1000 rpm, and front brakes were standard. The front axle on four-wheel-drive models was Hurth branded.

The power output of the 201 gradually increased from 40 hp to first 42 hp and then 45 hp in 1983. Initially, the 200 series had a more powerful four-wheel-drive model, and later a 40 hp version was also available with rear-wheel drive. In 1983, the versions were combined into a 38-horsepower model. At the same time, the 200 series received the familiar black stripe on the side of the engine hood from the 300 series (see lower image) and hydrostatic steering as standard.

Other versions of the 200 series included the 203 (50–57 hp), 204 (65 hp), and 205 (72 hp). These were available only as compact models.
