The World’s Best-Selling Tractor Brand Isn’t John Deere

by Gabrielle DeSantis

Here in the states, when someone says “tractor” it’s unsurprising if our subconscious brand recognition conjures up images of a green John Deere machine, plowing the fields of our imagination. But it turns out, the John Deere tractor brand only tops sales charts in North America. The world’s best-selling tractor brand isn’t green––it’s a bright red Mahindra.

What’s America’s best-selling tractor brand?

The best-selling tractor brand in the U.S. is John Deere. The iconic green and yellow agriculture and landscaping equipment are sold across the country and throughout the world. Farmers in the field, suburb-dwelling folks deigning to appease a nosey HOA, professional landscape designers––you name it––all have their reasons for buying John Deere equipment. Regardless of the reason, many Americans buy John Deere tractors and various equipment.

In fact, the tractor company saw a 34% increase in sales for the second quarter this year. Moreover, John Deere reports a change in the annual forecast that means the “full-year earnings forecast raised to range of $5.3 to $5.7 billion.” This American tractor manufacturer is currently enjoying incredible success. It’s not surprising in the least that Deere & Company is the most popular tractor brand in America.

It may not be the world’s best-selling tractor, but it’s a strong enterprise. That said, this is shaping up to be a very lucrative year for Deere & Company, the producer of John Deere tractors. The tractor brand competition is heating up in 2021.

Mahindra made it over to the U.S. in the late 1980s. The story goes that a man named Rip Evans took a trailer loaded with Mahindra tractors on a tour across America. The products impressed farmers, agricultural workers, and many other people. Soon after the promotional effort wrapped up, Mahindra & Mahindra’s Farming Equipment Sector opened its first U.S. location in Houston, TX.

Today, the company remains one of the top three tractor brands in America. In fact, the tractor company runs over 500 Mahindra dealer locations in the U.S. As the world’s top-selling tractor brand, it’s no surprise that there are Mahindra tractor assembly and distribution locations across the continent of North America.
