ENGINE
CLEAN-RUNNING ENGINES THAT SAVE YOU MONEY
At the heart of every tractor from the Clean Energy Leader is a clean-running engine. Genesis™ T8 tractors feature proven ECOBlue™ technology with SCR Cursor 9 engines that deliver increased horsepower while using less fuel and meeting stringent Tier 4A emission standards. The result: you cover more acres in a day and save both time and money.
THE POWER YOU NEED, WHEN YOU NEED IT
The Genesis™ T8 Engine Power Management (EPM) system continuously adjusts engine output to match your working conditions, optimizing fuel efficiency and boosting your overall productivity. During demanding hydraulic, PTO and transport applications, these engines develop more power and torque to maintain performance.
SCR ADVANTAGE: BREATHABILITY
By using ECOBlue technology with Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) technology and DEF/AdBlue® After treatment, the nitrogen oxides in exhaust gas are converted to harmless water and nitrogen. This treatment is separate from the air intake which means an SCR engine “breathes” only clean fresh air, ensuring optimal combustion conditions.
New Holland draws on the experience of engine development partner, Fiat Powertrain Technologies (FPT). FPT has already produced over 150,000 SCR engines during the past five years for trucking use, so you can be assured of reliability
T
HE PROOF IS IN THE NUMBERS
All five Genesis™ T8 Series tractors make use of proven, 8.7-liter, six-cylinder Cursor 9 engines. Compared to the engines used on the previous T8000 Series tractors, Genesis™ T8 tractor Cursor 9 engines with SCR provide up to 14 hp increase in rated power, up to 31 hp increase in maximum power and up to a 15% increase in peak torque while saving you up to 10% in operating costs.
COOL POWER
The improved Genesis™ T8 cooling system handles the heat generated by the powerful new engines. An increased grill area and added venting in the new hood design promotes air flow, letting cool air in and warm air out—without blowing the warm air over the cab or stirring dust on the ground. A more efficient vistronic fan drive system adjusts fan speed based on temperature input, so the fan only spins as fast as needed. The end result is less power is consumed.
AVAILABLE ENGINE BRAKING
Optional engine braking uses the compression of exhaust gas to slow the tractor down, saving wear on the brake pads. Just step on the convenient floor pedal and the exhaust is restricted from leaving the valve and is compressed by the piston moving upwards. This compression of exhaust gas slows the tractor down.
TRANSMISSION
THE MOST SPEEDS IN ITS CLASS
No matter which Genesis™ T8 transmissions you choose, you get a minimum of 18 forward speeds, with eight of them in the critical 3- to 8-mph tillage range. That’s more than other tractors in this class. All four are electronic, full powershift transmissions that provide Ground Speed Management (GSM) convenience during both field and road operation.
CHOOSE FROM FOUR SUPER SMOOTH TRANSMISSIONS
You’ll find the transmission that meets your needs in the Genesis™ T8 Series. The four options include:
- The 18 x 4 powershift (standard)
- The 19 x 4 powershift option with fuel-economic overdrive
- The new 19 x 4 powershift with a time-saving 31-mph (50 kph) top transport speed
- The 23 x 6 creeper powershift – engage creep gears on the go, without having to stop.

SMARTTRAX™ REAR TRACKS
INCREASED TRACTION, REDUCED COMPACTION, AND A BETTER RIDE.
Thanks to the larger SmartTrax™ footprint, you can put more power to the ground for increased traction while reducing compaction. That means you can get into your fields even earlier with a GENESIS® T8 Series SmartTrax tractor and work on wet spring ground. It all adds up to more productive farming.
TREADING LIGHTLY
SmartTrax™ offer up to a 65% higher contact area with the soil than their wheeled equivalents. By spreading the load over a wider area you can reduce soil compaction, and lower compaction means higher yields.
FULL POWER TURNS WITH NO SOIL DAMAGE
The T8 SmartTrax option offers the best of both worlds: tight turning courtesy of the front wheels and ultimate traction from the rear tracks. The result: full power turns. In reality, this means that you can continue to cultivate during headland turns, improving your productivity.
PERFECTLY BALANCED OPERATION
The GENESIS T8 SmartTrax retains its two-axle configuration, which enables power to be distributed through both axles for more balanced operation. When towing heavy loads, or during tillage operations, the power delivered to the front wheels counterbalances the load on the rear of the tractor. This also enables more flexible ballasting, so that you can add additional weight exactly when and where it is needed for greater flexibility.
TRACTION WITHOUT QUESTION
The SmartTrax triangle design, together with the rubber cleats on the outer belt, ensure positive contact with the soil and unsurpassed traction when working on the steepest slopes or in the wettest or dustiest conditions.
POSITIVE, EFFICIENT DRIVE
Up to seven or eight positive lugs on the inner side of the tracks maintain physical contact with the drive wheel at all times for the ultimate in efficient power transmission.
IMPROVED RIDE QUALITY
The benefit of the wheels and tracks combination is that it delivers improved ride quality. Since the two axles can react independently to changing contours in the field, they can effectively absorb them, eliminating the see-saw motion of single-track machines, improving comfort for you and your operators.
GLIDE OVER THE FIELD OR DOWN THE ROAD IN ABSOLUTE COMFORT
Why complicate matters? Simplicity is always the best policy. The rubber block suspension system offers a tried-and-tested, reliable solution to significantly reduce vibrations for enhanced operator comfort and productivity. Ride quality is further improved by the three central independent rollers which move in conjunction with the terrain to cushion the operator from even the harshest shocks. When this is combined with Comfort Ride™ cab suspension and the positive-response active Auto Comfort™ seat suspension, you will feel as though you are floating on air.
SMARTTRAX™ WITH TERRAGLIDE™: YOUR COMFORT PARTNER
The Terraglide™ front axle suspension has been fine-tuned specifically for the GENESIS T8 SmartTrax models. It improves traction and enhances comfort by counteracting bouncing to produce a smooth ride. When this is combined with Comfort Ride™ cab suspension, you have ultimate control of your GENESIS T8 during high-speed road transport, enhancing comfort and improving safety.
TROUBLE-FREE TRACK SETTING
The SmartTrax option features a continuous heavy-duty tensioning system, which ensures that the correct track tension is always maintained for ideal traction. This automatic hydraulic system requires no operator input, so you can get on with the serious business of farming. In addition, the tensioning system is completely separate from the drive wheel, for ultimate simplicity and reliability.
NUMEROUS TRACK SPACING AND BELT WIDTHS
SmartTrax™ are available in four widths to suit your operation. The standard 16”, 18” and 24” versions are available with the narrow undercarriage and are perfect for most operations. If you work in the most extreme conditions, including on steep slopes and on very wet ground, the 24” or 30” belt widths are available. They spread the load even wider for even lower compaction and even more traction.
FLEXIBLE TRACK SPACING
Many different variables dictate the required track spacing. You can select a track spacing of between 76” to 152” to ensure the perfect width for your field.

THE MOST COMFORTABLE SEAT ON THE FARM
Comfort is guaranteed thanks to the deluxe air-suspension seat that comes as standard equipment. For operators who spend extended hours in the tractor, the enhanced comfort of the ventilated, fully active Auto Comfort™ seat is worth considering. This premium seat uses a network of sensors to automatically calibrate damping on the go depending on the operator’s actual weight, for the smoothest ride ever. The seat also features advanced ventilation technology, which warms the body on cold days and efficiently whisks away perspiration for ultimate comfort in all weather. For an added touch of luxury, select the full leather option.
MAINTENANCE
QUICK, EASY-ACCESS SERVICING
New Holland designed GENESIS® T8 tractors to spend more time working and less time in the yard. All service points are easy to access, and super-long service intervals mean GENESIS T8 tractors spend more time in their natural environment: the field.
DAILY MAINTENANCE FROM ONE POINT
Complete daily servicing at just one central location, from the ground, without opening any doors, panels or the hood. Check and fill engine oil, coolant, hydraulic oil and fuel in one side of the tractor, and inspect, clean and replace the cab air filter, as well. Engine service intervals are an extended 600 hours.
EASY FILLING
The AdBlue/DEF tank capacity has been increased to 26 gallons and the diesel tank capacity has been increased to 179 gallons (163-gallon on CVT models) for more in-field time. The diesel tank is lockable for added security.
IMPORTANT DETAILS
The single-piece New Holland engine hood opens wide for full service access, and the cooling package opens out to make cleaning faster and easier. A built-in step makes reaching the front windshield for cleaning safe and secure, and new right-hand steps allow you to easily clean the right door window to improve visibility when working. You can top up the wash bottle through the rear window.
