An Old Versatile Tractor Editorial Photo

Versatile is a Canadian brand of agricultural equipment that has produced augers, swathers and combine harvester. In the 1970s that had 70% of the 4WD tractor market. Versatile was the first company to mass-produce articulated four-wheel drive tractors, starting in 1966 with the D100 and G100 four-wheel drives. Those ground-breaking tractors were primitive by modern standards, with a 6-cylinder diesel or 8-cylinder gas engine producing 100 horsepower.
