Challenger Equipment
Predecessor Caterpillar Challenger Tractor range
Founded 2002
Headquarters , USA
Products agriculture machinery tractor, Combine harvester
Parent AGCO Corporation

The Challenger Equipment brand was acquired in 2002 when AGCO Corporation purchased the rights from Caterpillar Corporation to their tracked tractor line of farm machinery. To expand the brand range, AGCO took products from their other brands, such as wheeled tractors from Massey Ferguson, combine harvesters from Gleaner, sprayers from RoGator and TerraGator and Hay Making Equipment from Hesston and badged them as Challenger Equipment. This badge engineering is quite common within AGCO's North American products.

AGCO has a tie-up with NefAZ in Russia for the assembly and distribution of Challenger combines under the AGCO-NEFAZ Challenger name.
