TRANSMISSION
The John Deere 9R 590 features an e18 18-speed PowerShift transmission with Efficiency Manager, providing optimal power management and enabling smooth shifting for improved operational efficiency at speeds up to 40 km/h (25 mph). The absence of a reverser and creeper gear may limit maneuverability in tight spaces and reduce performance in low-speed applications. However, this transmission is advantageous for large-scale agricultural tasks, ensuring high productivity and fuel efficiency during transport over extended distances.

TIRES
The John Deere 9R 590 features a highly efficient turning radius of 6.035 m (19.8 ft) when using Group 47 or Group 48 tires, optimizing maneuverability in tight agricultural spaces. Its Central Tire Inflation System (CTIS) allows for on-the-go pressure adjustments, improving traction and reducing soil compaction—crucial for sustainable farming practices. However, the turning radius may pose challenges in dense cropping scenarios or fields with narrow layouts, highlighting the importance of tire selection for optimal performance.
