The small Super models were replaced in 1971 by the Compact models. These featured smaller 3- and 4-cylinder engines than before, in terms of displacement. The most powerful model, the Compact 950 (95 hp), was equipped with a turbocharger. For a few years, a 6-cylinder Super model was still available in the same power class. The Compact transmissions were fully synchronized 12+6 gearboxes from ZF. A torque converter clutch was available as an option.

About half of the Compacts were sold as four-wheel drive. The four-wheel drive could be engaged on the move, and a limited-slip differential became an option from 1974 onward. Four-wheel brakes were also available.

In 1972, 18 units of the Compact 550 model were produced. It was smaller in every respect compared to the 750. Production was prematurely ended because ZF discontinued the production of the gearbox used in the 550.

In 1974, a higher cab was introduced, with the gear levers moved to the side. At the same time, engine power was increased. Hydrostatic steering was introduced to the four-wheel drive models in autumn 1975 and to the rear-wheel drive models in spring 1976. The engine hood became somewhat more angular in 1975.
