V-Drive Continuous Transmission

Posted: 2 April 2025

Our advanced V-Drive continuous transmission, now available on large high-flow telehandler models (TL34.65HF, TL38.70HF & TL43.80HF), optimizes your workflow by eliminating the need for manual gear shifts. It automatically adjusts speed based on driving conditions, letting you accelerate from 0 to 40 km/h without stopping the machine. With V-Drive, your telehandler also offers enhanced comfort, quieter operation, and a lower total cost of ownership (TCO). Key features like the Maximum Speed Limiter, Stop & Start function, Cruise Control, and ECO-Ride come as standard, all contributing to a smoother, more efficient experience.

Get Superior Performance 

The V-Drive transmission efficiently transfers engine power to the wheels, allowing your machine to take on everything from uneven ground to smooth surfaces. It also features a dual hydraulic motor system in series, which eliminates the need for a gearbox.

Hydrostatic speeds, Turtle and Rabbit, are always selectable via the joystick. However, we've fine-tuned the speed curves for specific applications:

  • Turtle speed: Loader mode, ranging from 0 to 20 km/h
  • Rabbit speed: Drive mode, ranging from 0 to 40 km/h

The V-Drive Telehandler also comes with Cruise Control, letting you maintain speed without using the throttle pedal. This enhances performance, improves safety, and gives you better control while reducing operator effort. Whether you're driving on the road or working at low speeds with attachments like a sweeper, feeding bucket, or straw blower, Cruise Control helps you stay focused on the task. Plus, with tractor homologation, these models are certified for public road use and support vehicle registration plates.
