TRANSMISSION 1
The New Holland T6.160 features a Dual Command transmission with a two-speed power shift, enabling seamless gear changes across 24 forward and reverse options. This provides operators with enhanced productivity and optimal control for varying field conditions. However, the complexity of the power shift system may necessitate additional operator training to fully utilize its capabilities.

TRANSMISSION 3
The New Holland T6.160's AutoShift transmission enhances operational efficiency by automatically selecting the appropriate gear, making it ideal for varied terrains and workload conditions. With 16 forward and reverse gears, it offers versatility in speed control, while the additional 17-speed option allows for enhanced performance at higher speeds (40 KPH or 50 KPH). However, reliance on automatic shifting may lead to less driver engagement in precision tasks, which could be a consideration for operators seeking full control.
