In 1957, Hanomags received new model designations. The actual changes were mostly limited to appearance. In many cases, different model designations were used in the domestic market than for export. The single-cylinder R12 became the C112 in Germany and R218 elsewhere. The two-cylinder models had more small improvements, for example in the steering. The successor to the R18 was the C218, also known as R223, and the R24 was replaced by the C224, also known as R228. In the German designations, the first number indicated the number of cylinders and the following numbers indicated the power.

In 1960, the last single-cylinder Hanomag was produced. The C115, known as the Greif, had a ZF-made gearbox and lift, unlike its predecessor and other Hanomags. The engine was part of the load-bearing structure, unlike in earlier small models. After these models, Hanomag no longer manufactured tractors this small nor two-stroke engines, but instead started sales cooperation with Bautz. During the nine years, a total of 33,000 small tractors equipped with two-stroke engines were made.
