New Holland Agriculture widens the extensive T6 range further with a new 6-cylinder model: the new T6.180 Auto Command and T6.180 Dynamic Command. It introduces a new level of performance to the T6 range, with the NEF 6-cylinder 6.7 L engine that delivers 70 Nm additional torque (740 Nm) at 1,500 rpm: 12% more than the NEF 4-cylinder 4.5 L engine.
New T6 model consolidates New Holland’s leadership of the segment’s 6-cylinder tractors
With the new model, New Holland consolidates its historical leadership of 6-cylinder tractors in the 100-150 hp segment, built on a heritage dating back to the Ford 10 Series and 40 Series through to the T6 introduced in 2013. Today New Holland is the only brand to offer a 6-cylinder tractor in this segment.
Michael Cornman, New Holland Mid-Range Tractor Product Marketing Manager, explains, “New Holland has a proud history of leadership in this segment, with extensive choice and a unique offering. The new 6-cylinder model introduces into this segment a new level of performance with a highly versatile tractor that delivers more torque, more engine braking and more stability. Today there is more choice than ever for our customers, and a T6 that matches the requirements of every farming operation.”
6-cylinder performance now matched to the award-winning Auto Command
The new T6.180 Auto Command is the only 6-cylinder tractor with continuously variable transmission in its class. This provides the perfect solution for customers looking for all-round performance where exact speeds are critical and the benefits of excellent power-to-weight ratio.
The T6 Auto Command can be offered with ISOBUS Class 3 capability. Hitched to a New Holland round baler with IntelliBale, the baler itself can stop the tractor when a bale is formed, eject the bale and close the tailgate. The driver is left to simply press the shuttle button to recommence baling.
6-Cylinder Performance Now Available with Dynamic Command
Operators have even more choices to further their productivity with the new T6.180 Dynamic Command. Featuring a three-range, eight-step, semi-powershift transmission that provides 24 gears in forward and reverse, this transmission is a New Holland exclusive for tractors up to 125 PTO hp. Offering eight gears in each of three working ranges, this option transmission allows for less frequent shift ranges and improves the shift quality during operation, without torque reduction. The Dynamic StartStop brake-to-clutch feature slows the tractor to a standstill simply by pressing the brake. Additional advanced features include Ground Speed Management, adjustable shuttle aggression, IntelliShift and more.
