The strongest straight-line pull
The soil specialist
The 8RT two-track machines deliver the strongest straight-line pull, very efficient power transfer, and high flotation that is predestined for flat terrain and dry, loose soil.
A new level of driving comfort
AirCushion suspension provides highest driving comfort
The AirCushion™ suspension effectively isolates the chassis from the harsh shocks of uneven terrain. In combination with the advanced four-post cab suspension with 50 to 100 mm (2 to 3.9 in.) of travel range, you’ll experience a level of comfort that is uncommon in two-track tractors. Both suspensions are available as part of the base configuration.
All 8RT Tractors come with in-cab steering sensitivity adjustment so you can tailor the steering response to your individual needs. The in-line tension arm and alignment mechanism virtually eliminate the risk of belt derailing.
Excellent power and efficiency from John Deere 8R Series Tractors
94 percent overall tractor efficiency*
Engine specifications in marketing materials can be deceiving. What matters is the power that is transmitted to the ground and to the power take-off (PTO), accounting for the natural losses along the whole drivetrain.
John Deere transmissions have extremely low power losses. The PowerShift™ and e23™ transmissions are purely mechanically driven. Also, with the AutoPowr™ transmission, the losses are minimal as the hydrostatic power flow is very small in the main working ranges.
Maintaining the 94 percent overall tractor efficiency benchmark of the previous 8R Series was a priority for the design of the updated 8R.*

Optimal performance and power from the John Deere-built engine
Built for agriculture
Unleash an extra boost of 26.1 kW (35 hp)
John Deere builds and tunes engines for optimal performance in the most demanding agricultural applications. It’s what the engines stand for, and it is what John Deere is known for.
The power decal on the hood merely shows the rated engine power. However, unlike many other tractors, John Deere engines deliver a torque rise of up to 40 percent and an outstanding power bulge of around 10 percent in the field. This maximum power is always available under all conditions. Plus, if extra loads occur suddenly and the engine rpm drops a little, the torque continues to increase, and you stay within the constant power range. This makes for the tremendous pulling power John Deere engines stand for.
On the road or in power take-off (PTO) applications, the engine’s Intelligent Power Management can yet again unleash an extra boost of 26.1 kW (35 hp).
Maximum efficiency and top field performance with a choice of transmissions
16-speed PowerShift™ transmission
The 16-speed PowerShift transmission is available for the wheeled models up to the 8R 340, with 16 forward and five reverse speeds for efficient and reliable gear shifting in tough field work.
First introduced in 1994, the PowerShift transmission delivers the strength to handle sudden, high-torque power loads while maintaining responsive, application-based shifting.
Six gears between 4 and 12 km/h (2.5 and 7.5 mph)
The speeds are carefully spaced for optimal engine power and torque utilization and to allow the operator to select the appropriate gear for maximum fuel economy and productivity. The transmission provides six gears between 4 and 12 km/h (2.5 and 7.5 mph) to always ensure the optimal gear/rpm combination.
e23™ transmission
e23 transmission
The fully mechanical e23 transmission is engineered to deliver maximum efficiency and robustness for real arable farming. The Efficiency Manager™ feature allows you to pre-set the ground speed and then sets the engine to the optimum rpm for saving fuel by automatically shifting up and throttling back.
In Custom mode, Eco allows two minimum engine speeds to be set. Operators can turn Eco on or off with the Eco button on the throttle or in the transmission settings page of the CommandCenter™ display.
Top field performance
Top field performance comes in the form of ten gears in the main working range from 5 to 16 km/h (3.1 to 10 mph), providing the ideal gear for the most demanding of pulling applications.
AutoPowr™ transmission
Eco speed of AutoPowr with 40 km/h (25 mph) at fuel-saving 1360 rpm
AutoPowr lets you accelerate smoothly from start-up to maximum speed with a single lever and absolutely no clutching. Just choose a specific speed and AutoPowr keeps it steady by automatically responding to changing load conditions.
There are four modes available in AutoPowr, including Full Auto, Custom, Manual, and Pedal mode, which enables you to control ground speed separately from the engine speed.
Designed and built exclusively by John Deere, the four-range AutoPowr transmission ensures 55 to 100 percent mechanical power flow for ultimate tractor efficiency and maximum power to the ground. Less hydraulic power transfer also means lower oil cooling requirements – a further efficiency boost.
Achieve low transport application costs with top speeds of 40 km/h (25 mph) at 1360 rpm and 50 km/h (31 mph) at 1630 rpm.

Automatically control tractor implement functions with CommandCenter™ Ultimate Activation
Almost autonomous
On top of all the Premium Activation features, you can also reap the benefits of AutoTrac™ Turn Automation, AutoTrac Implement Guidance – Passive, Machine Sync, and In-Field Data Sharing.
AutoTrac Turn Automation
Automatic control of the entire headland turn
AutoTrac Turn Automation automatically controls the entire headland turn and manages all tractor and implement functions, including forward speed changes and power take-off (PTO) switching. The advanced solution raises or lowers linkages at exactly the right time and position in the field to guarantee perfectly consistent headland crop growth.
AutoTrac Implement Guidance – Passive
AutoTrac Implement Guidance – Passive solves a problem the single AutoTrac solution cannot: in uneven terrain and on slopes, the weight of your pull-type implement will cause it to drift. The results are quality-reducing gaps and overlaps. With a second receiver on the implement, regardless of the terrain, you can achieve highest precision standards in all your seeding, planting, and tillage operations.
In-Field Data Sharing
Next level of precision farming
In-Field Data Sharing lets you see coverage and as-applied maps for machines working in the same field at the same time. It’s how you can make sure that you get complete field coverage with multiple machines, even in low light and/or dusty conditions, while you reduce over-application, obtain more accurate documentation data, and lower input costs. They say that information is power, and it can certainly be profitable.
Machine Sync
Machine Sync enables the global positioning system (GPS) based synchronisation of speed and steering between a combine and tractor with a grain cart or trailer during unloading in the field. This means even trailer filling without losses and reduced vehicle collision risk. In addition, it provides important logistics information such as grain fill tank level and combine position to allow operators to make informed decisions about the most direct route to the next destination.
