| Type | full power shift |
| Gears | 19 forward and 6 reverse |
| Description | The economy transmission adds an overdrive gear to the 18-speed Power Command allowing for more efficicent high-speed transport. A high-speed transport gear was also available on the Power Command. |
TRANSMISSION 3
The New Holland T7040's Auto Command transmission features a continuously variable transmission (CVT) system, providing seamless power delivery and eliminating the need for gear shifting, which enhances operator comfort and productivity. Infinite forward and reverse gears allow for precise speed adjustment, making it ideal for tasks requiring intricate maneuverability, such as tilling or planting. However, users should be aware of potential maintenance costs associated with CVT systems, as they may require specialized servicing compared to conventional transmissions.
