More Choice For STEYR Expert Customers: Two Transmissions And Three Feature Packs

17 February 2026, Austria: A fuel-efficient additional transmission option and a selection of feature packages mean the STEYR® Expert range of 110-140hp (max) tractors can now be even more closely matched to individual customer requirements.

Well established with the continuously-variable S-ControlTM CVT transmission, Expert models can now alternatively be specified with the S-Control 8 double clutch transmission, broadening choice to best fit customer needs. Three ranges each with eight powershift steps ensure S-Control 8 provides accurate speed control for everything from low-speed precision tasks through to general field work and high-speed transport. Maximum speed is 40kph, and gear overlap ensures smooth changes under load, with automated shifting possible in each range. S-Tronic maximises engine and transmission efficiency and minimizes fuel use, while the S-Stop II brake-to-clutch feature aids precise and safe loader work and implement hitching. A memory shuttle stores and matches forward and reverse speeds for smooth shuttling, while an auto clutch eliminates the need to use the foot clutch for range changes.

The new specification packs for STEYR Expert S-Control 8 tractors simplify specifying and ordering, and improve value. Designed for farms performing loader work and light field tasks where the tractor is used frequently but not continuously, the economical yet functional Element package includes features such as mechanical rear remote valves and up to two electrohydraulic mid-mount valves, plus a basic loader joystick. Cab and front axle suspension are optional. Aimed at owners looking to perform light tillage and transport with larger models, the Evolution package offers enhanced comfort and precision tech-readiness. Cab and front axle suspension are standard, and advanced telematics are an optional upgrade from the standard basic package, as is autoguidance up to RTK level, plus up to three electronic remote valves with advanced joystick.

A dedicated Orange package meets the needs of STEYR municipality and forestry customers. It includes a standard suspended front axle, with the option of cab suspension. Up to three electrohydraulic remote valves can be specified, with advanced joystick.
