TRANSMISSIONS OVERVIEW
The CaseIH Puma 145 tractor features an advanced 19-speed full power shift continuously variable transmission (CVT), enhancing its performance by providing seamless power delivery and improved fuel efficiency during diverse agricultural operations. This transmission allows for precise speed control, making it ideal for tasks requiring varying engine output such as tillage and planting. However, while the CVT offers superior versatility, it may increase initial costs compared to standard transmission systems and require specialized maintenance knowledge.

| Gears | 18 forward and 6 reverse |
| Clutch | electro-hydraulic wet disc |
TRANSMISSION 2
The CaseIH Puma 145's EconoGear transmission enhances operational efficiency by enabling full power shift with 19 forward gears and 6 reverse gears, optimizing power delivery during varied tasks. The electro-hydraulic wet disc clutch ensures smoother gear transitions and reduces wear, making it advantageous for both fieldwork and transport. However, while the transport gear allows for higher road speeds at lower engine RPMs, this may reduce the tractor's responsiveness under heavy load scenarios.
