Engine
- Cummins 6.7-litre engine utilises 4 cylinder per valve technology and air-to-air cooling, producing over 95% of maximum torque at just 1,000rpm.
- Rear-driven geartrain dramatically reduces external engine noise.
- Common rail fuel injection system can operate at pressures of up to 1,600 bar and uses electronics to precisely control injection of the fuel, improving performance and efficiency.
- Effective dust filtration is supplemented by a Donaldson Powercore system that uses centrifugal force to remove large dust particles before they enter the filter element, helping to reduce routine maintenance.
- Engine management system continuously monitors performance to help increase service life: after the initial 100-hour service the engine oil and filters only need renewing every 500 hours, while top-end engine maintenance is only required every 5,000 hours.

Transmission
- Designed and produced by JCB for 7000 Series machines, P-TRONIC is a 24-speed semi-powershift transmission which achieves speeds of up to 70kph and gives you the right speed for any application.
- 6 powershift gears within 4 ranges ensure smooth, rapid up or down shifts under load, while the multi-plate, oil-immersed wet clutch gives smooth progressive engagement of drive without use of the clutch pedal.
- Super-finished gears minimise friction and maximise efficiency.
- CAN-BUS technology communicates between engine and transmission allowing the machine to select the most appropriate gear for the engine load and operation.
- 3 touchscreen-accessed transmission modes (Powershift, Autoshift and Drive) give you optimum machine performance.

Suspension and Chassis
- Full, vibration-free primary suspension system gives a smoother ride increasing efficiency, ensuring attachments remain stable and eliminating power hop.
- Load-compensating, hydro-pneumatic, self-levelling rear suspension smoothly accommodates loads placed on the rear of the tractor, continually correcting itself to maintain a consistent ride height.
- Self-levelling front suspension improves handling as front implements are raised and lowered. The machine maintains full suspension travel at all times, preventing nose-lowering when lifting heavy front implements.
- Advanced suspension is supported by chassis design and large capacity rear axle. Sculpted chassis also gives tighter in-field turning circles.
- Side-to-side levelling and anti-roll bars improve handling, safety and stability.

Cab
- The industry's finest cab is the largest and most comfortable available, offering exceptional legroom and storage.
- Air suspension seat (with optional heating) and a full-size passenger seat offer incredible comfort, while seat-mounted control panel, touchscreen and instrument panel keep all operations close to hand.
- Fully automatic climate control allows you to set the desired temperature and works to maintain a comfortable and productive environment.
- Options including a performance monitor, additional worklights, heated front and rear windscreens, driver's seat and electric mirrors, and a refrigerator let you obtain optimum performance and comfort.
- Four-post (instead of six-post) design, repositioned exhaust stack, large glass doors and larger windows give unsurpassed visibility

Hydraulics
- Load-sensing variable displacement auxiliary hydraulic pump features class-leading maximum flow of 120 litres/min, saves fuel and wear, and prevents excessive heat generation in the hydraulic system
- Big capacity, flow-on-demand hydraulics give 100-litre/min (or optional industry-leading 140-litre/min) maximum outputs per valve.
- Optional load-sensing power beyond connection allows implements with their own valve block to demand oil from the tractor when required
- Ergonomic armrest mounted linkage controls maintain precise control. Category 2 electronic front linkage gives both single and double actuation at the flick of a switch, as well as height, depth and linkage operating speed controls.
- Electronically controlled spool valves let you adjust time and flow for accurate and automatic control of implements.
