I was quite excited about the prospect of a new 7s. It was time to update the cab and keep up with every other mainstream manufacturer but no. In there infinite wisdom, Massey have painted the frame silver, the dash black and put in a new arm rest. I assume they have added 10 percent to the price tag as well.
I know there is plenty people who like the old cab but it's now done it's time. No storage space is my biggest complaint and compared to everyone else, its dated. The only good thing they have done is add a slightly bigger model to the range. A good thing for us lads that like high horsepower lighter tractors.
Slow hand clap for mf

Dunno. I like the look of it. Cant come to terms with the 8s cab. Butt ugly..... As for space. My 7620 is the ONLY tractor I can fit my 35ltr fridge in. So not sure why the complaints about room?

Don't think they have. Biggest one is the same as the 7719s,190hp boosted to 220.
Only thing they seem to have changed from our 7719s is the colour of the cab and a new armrest.

Probably too big for the rest of the tractor.

See it's a Kuhn plough on the back.What are they doing!! The current 7S series tractors look great, but these forthcoming 2022 ones look awful!! You know, sometimes guys "retro" just doesnt cut it, Leave the damn cab frame black!!

Why on earth do you need a 35l fridge in a tractor?

As a non Massey man I like the look, reminds me of the 390 times.

Presumably when you drive a Massey, you need something that holds enough beer to take the pain away every day?

Same reason I enjoy air conditioning. It gets hotter than 25°c in Australia..... and if I'm in the tractor i never stop for lunch.
Rare it ever gets that hot here!
I think the 6 post cab is good and didn't need changed for the smaller ranges. The silver paint looks turd on the photos. Will see what there like in person. But why they hyped this tractor release as much is a laugh. Nothing has changed. They had a chance to improve the cab layout and have chosen not to do a thing. Grouping the electric spools on the armrest could of easily been achieved. Datatronic screen/GPS on the armrest. And improve the rubbish interior quality(which was far better on the 64 series) if these tractors are the same money as new holland, John deere or valtra I just can't see us having another fergy. And don't start me on the 6s. Why does a 4 cylinder tractor need fitted with 42" rims. They should be compact not just 6" shorter than an identical 6 cylinder. Which farmers do the fergy designers talk too? I think it's just accountants giving the r&d a budget
Sorry for the long post

2l bottles take up a lot more than 2l of space

And the fact still remains, I cant get the fridge on the floor in any of our other tractors. Theres either not enough room or something in the way.
And I'm sure theres a significant amount of changes made to it. Just not the cab shape..
But yes, they probably should have held off the 7S name till they put a new one on it. (But not that God ugly 8S cab please.... makes the tractor look like it has a broken back the way it leans backwards)
