In the fall of 2000, the large Rubins were introduced, gradually replacing the old Titan models. The design was largely similar to Deutz-Fahr’s large Agrotrons. However, the engines were Same’s water-cooled 6.0-liter units. In addition to water cooling, the bottoms of the pistons were cooled by an oil jet. The maximum power was found in the range of 2000-2350 rpm.

Like the smaller Rubins, the gearbox was 9-speed and equipped with a 2-program shifting automation. Most of the controls were assembled on the armrest and the multifunction lever located there, the position of which could be adjusted. The entire transmission was controlled with the multifunction lever and its buttons. The length of the Rubin was stated as 486 cm without the drawbars, so the total length was slightly over five meters. Suspension for the cab and front axles was available as an optional extra.

The cab’s noise level was 72 decibels. In addition to air conditioning, the cab was pressurized to keep dust out. The electrical system was based on a CAN bus through which electronic functions communicated with each other and with the work implements. The headland automation could save eight consecutive operations. The output of the closed hydraulic system was 113 liters per minute, and a full ten tons of lift capacity was promised.

The model history of the large Rubins was short compared to Same's generally long model generations, as the Iron models replaced them already in 2004.
