eAutoPowr™ Transmission
Stepless goes electric: Our award-winning eAutoPowr™ is the first electromechanical splitpath infinitely variable transmission (IVT) and delivers unprecedented efficiency, comfort and durability.
The world’s first electric infinitely variable transmission with electro-mechanical power split is now an option for the top of the range 8R 410 and is available for all three machine forms – 8R wheeled, 8RT and 8RX. This is a significant step in John Deere’s journey towards electrification which has been developed in partnership with Joskin. The entirely new transmission concept, inclusive of an e-port for implements, was awarded a gold medal at AGRITECHNICA 2019 by the DLG (the German Agricultural Society).
After many years of research and development in the space of electrification, John Deere has now found a highly durable solution offering an infinitely variable transmission in the horsepower class above 400hp. Not only does it have increased durability, but it also positively impacts the overall performance.
For the new eAutoPowrTM, John Deere has completely replaced the hydraulic components with an electric power path. The two brushless electric motors are virtually wear-free and powertrain durability exceeds any other concepts previously offered in the industry. Moreover, this simplifies the design of the transmission and allows real time remote technical diagnosis.
