TRANSMISSIONS OVERVIEW

The Valtra N121 offers a 24-speed or 36-speed transmission option, providing flexibility in various agricultural tasks through optimized gear ratios. A 36-speed transmission can enhance efficiency in variable terrain, allowing for better control over speed and torque, which is beneficial for tasks requiring precision, like planting or tilling. However, the complexity and maintenance of a 36-speed system may pose challenges, especially in harsh working conditions.

Description 24-speed/36-speed

TRANSMISSION 1

The Valtra N121 tractor features a robust 24-speed transmission, providing a wide range of speed options for various field conditions and tasks. This gear variety enhances adaptability, allowing for efficient operation in both heavy towing scenarios and lighter, precision tasks. However, operators may need time to master the shifting process to maximize performance and minimize wear on the transmission components.

Gears 24 forward and reverse

TRANSMISSION 2

The Valtra N121 tractor boasts a transmission system with 36 forward and reverse gears, enhancing versatility and precision for various agricultural tasks. This extensive gear range facilitates optimal power delivery and speed control, which can be particularly advantageous in diverse field conditions or when handling different implements. However, operators may require additional training to effectively manage such a complex gearbox, particularly in time-sensitive or high-stress scenarios.

Gears 36 forward and reverse

MECHANICAL

The Valtra N121 features a 4x4 MFWD design, enhancing traction and stability on varying terrains, making it ideal for diverse agricultural tasks. Its hydraulic disc brakes provide reliable stopping power, essential for safety during operation, especially in hilly or uneven landscapes. Additionally, the availability of 24-speed and 36-speed transmissions allows for optimal gear selection for power and efficiency, accommodating both high-speed transport and low-speed fieldwork scenarios.
