The latest offering from New Holland is an impressive new industry-leading T7 heavy-duty tractor
The new release is now available to New Zealand and Australian markets, with expected delivery on farms in mid-2022.
The new T7 flagship is the T7 Heavy Duty (HD) tractor with Precision Land Management Intelligence (PLM Intelligence). As the benchmark of tractors in this category and part of New Holland’s 11 model T7 range, the new T7 HD PLMi maintains the powerful performance, exceptional agility, and outstanding versatility that have long been hallmarks of this tractor in delivering a superior working experience.
The T7 HD integrates the brand-new Horizon Ultra™ cab and next-generation PLM™ Intelligence features across three models, from 250 to 300 rated horsepower.
New Holland product segment manager (mixed farming and livestock) Ben Mitchell says the T7 HD PLMi tractor was created from the first-hand feedback from operators on what important inclusions they are looking for in their machinery.
“We listened to our customers and found they expect more – more comfort, space, and connectivity,” he says.
“With the integration of the new generation of PLM Intelligence, the T7 HD is ideal for operators who need to multi-task in a variety of fields and transport applications and look for a boost to their comfort, efficiency, and productivity.
“Farmers can easily do more in their operation and be remotely connected to dealers and support services, increasing overall efficiency and profitability.
“The brand-new Horizon Ultra cab provides a comfortable work environment with clean, uncluttered surfaces, and intuitive operation with ergonomically located controls on the new SideWinder Ultra™ armrest and user-friendly IntelliView™ 12-inch display.
“The controls can be configured to match the operator’s preferences, and a range of customisation features are included that enable operators to personalise their tractor to suit.
“The redesign has further improved visibility by increasing the total glass area by 11%, while cameras keep a safe watch on the area around the tractor. A new work light package with up to 24 LED lights totalling an impressive 45,600 lumens further ensures visibility around the tractor and implement is maintained into the night.
“Topping off the features of the new cab is the industry-leading 66dBA sound level, ensuring a whisper-quiet ride while enjoying the multi-zone climate control.”
New Holland product segment manager (precision land management) Chris Camilleri says the T7 HD introduces the next-generation PLM Intelligence, which represents a step forward in New Holland’s Precision Land Management strategy.
“The technology marks the shift from traditional farming practices to agriculture 4.0, where Precision and Interconnected Farming assists farmers to plan all operations in advance, manage in real-time the behaviour and performance of each machine, and achieve maximum precision and efficiency,” Chris says.
“The next-generation PLM Intelligence will be adopted in all New Holland next-generation machinery so that customers will find the same logic when switching machines and can easily access data to get the job done more efficiently.”
New Holland’s advanced connectivity also helps operators to minimise downtime while on-farm.
“Through the MyNewHolland App, customers can register their machine, retrieve its technical information, and access the MyPLMConnect portal.
“Operators can manage their fleet and farm data in a single environment while receiving dynamic information in real-time from individual machines to make informed decisions.”
The T7 HD tractor is now available in the market, with delivery expected on farms in
mid-2022.
