GENESIS® T8 Series with PLM Intelligence™

Full Powershift Ultra Command™ for rugged efficiency

Ultra Command™ full powershift transmissions match proven mechanical efficiency to New Holland ease of control. The result? A transmission that is easy to set up and operate with a speed to perfectly match every application. It’s one of the most efficient full powershift transmissions available today. Available on the T8.320 – T8.435 models, the CommandGrip™ handle provides fingertip access to automated features, including Ground Speed Management. Choose between an 18 x 4, 19 x 4 (25 mph ECO or 31 mph) or 21 x 5 (25 mph or 31 mph) direct drive transmission.

GSM. Intelligent automation.

New Holland Ground Speed Management, GSM, is more than just an automated transmission shift system. With CVT-like functionality, it uses a combination of data relating to engine load, forward speed and operator setting, to manage both engine and transmission speeds to optimize performance and economy. Simple to set up and extremely efficient, GSM is well proven and dependable.

Fixed forward speed? GSM takes care of it.

When load conditions change in the field, GSM will automatically maintain a fixed forward speed. The operator first sets the desired working speed and then selects the GSM function. The automated system will then match engine and transmission speeds to maintain this fixed forward speed, to deliver the perfect balance between maintaining productivity without compromising economy.

Full command in transport

During road transport, GSM will automatically shift the transmission according to load and throttle settings. Starting from your pull-away gear, GSM will auto shift the ratio all the way to your top speed.

Intelliview - gear and speed at a glance

The standard IntelliView™ 12 monitor is configurable to provide a dedicated information panel to the left side of the screen, giving a clear read out of the selected transmission ratio and tractor speed.

Ultra Command Powershuttle

The forward reverse shuttle is operated via the steering column or the CommandGrip™ handle fitted on the SideWinder™ Ultra armrest. It can be programmed to automatically manage transmission shifts during a direction change to match or alter forward and reverse speeds. For ultra safe parking, the park lock is easily engaged using the shuttle lever.

Innovative Auto Command™ transmission offers advanced New Holland features.

Designed and built by New Holland over 25,000 multi award-winning Auto Command™ continuously variable transmissions (CVT) have been built. The Auto Command™ transmission benefits from four direct drive points with 100% mechanical efficiency. These points have been precision engineered to ensure that they perfectly match the most frequently used speeds during heavy draft work, secondary cultivation activities, high speed in-field work, such as baling or mowing, and high speed transport activities. Advanced double clutch control further enhances efficiency. Quite simply, it is the smoothest and most productive CVT around.

Three adjustable target speeds for every need

Auto Command technology allows the operator to set a target speed of between 20m/hr right through to 50km/hr and regulate it to the nearest 0.01kph. No steps. No range changes. Just seamless speed to match your every need.

Tailored transmission settings

The multi-award winning Auto Command™ continuously variable transmission now features a three-stage acceleration and deceleration setting. The ‘soft’ setting is suitable for gentle direction changes, perfect during high speed transport or when working on slippery surfaces. The standard setting has been designed for normal field activities. The super-fast aggressive setting is ideal when near instantaneous direction changes are required.

Active stop start

A key safety feature of Auto Command™ is Active StopStart. When the tractor is brought to a standstill, the transmission prevents the tractor moving backwards or forwards, even with a heavy load. When the transmission takes up drive there is no risk of roll back on steep inclines. For safe parking, an electronic brake is easily engaged via the shuttle lever.

Balancing fuel economy and productivity

When working in Auto and Cruise modes, use the droop control setting, which can be adjusted in the transmission setup screen of the IntelliView™ 12 display or by accessing this setup screen via the quick key button on the SideWinder™ Ultra armrest, to limit the upper engine speed used to achieve the desired forward speed. The result: you reach target speed at much lower engine revs, saving you fuel. In PTO mode, use droop control to regulate the acceptable reduction in PTO speed before forward speed is reduced.
