Clever Cab on McCormick X7

Share this item

McCormick upgraded the cab on its X7.6 VT-Drive tractor. The newly designed, so-called “Clever Cab”,  offers 14% more interior space and 16% more glazed areas for better visibility. It is mounted on the two models in the McCormick X7.6 VT-Drive range: the 200 hp X7.621 and 240 hp X7.624.

The heat-insulated door windows are made of Comfort Sky, a special compound developed by Saint Gobain, and when compared to conventional windows ensure a temperature difference of up to 6 degrees, as well as reducing noise. The new position of the handles also makes it easier for the operator to climb aboard. On the outside are LED light clusters, both front and rear, while inside is the new infotainment system, which can be integrated with Apple Car or Android Auto, new rear-view mirrors and new cooler compartment space.

Finally, the controls have been redesigned to be even easier and more convenient to reach, while the dashboard and digital interfaces have been enhanced to offer more satisfying user experience. New interior trim in automotive-style plastics and an Alpine four-speaker audio system complete the line-up. The new digital cluster, located behind the steering wheel, benefits from a clean design and integrates new functions, as well as dialoguing with the 12” DSM Plus touch monitor.

Among the features of the VT-Drive transmission on the McCormick X7.6 is the SmartPower Zero function. This ensures that the tractor remains stationary after the reverse shuttle is engaged, providing greater operator comfort during transport and field operations, as well as when hitching implements. On the other hand, the McCormick EazyGrip system automatically manages tyre pressure, optimising fuel consumption and traction while reducing tyre wear and ensuring optimum pressure at all times, from road to field.

The McCormick X7.6 accommodates mechatronic systems to assist driving and support fleet management, from PSM – Precision Steering Management (assisted satellite guidance system) to the McCormick Fleet & Remote Diagnostics Management system for real-time fleet control, tractor data analysis, remote maintenance scheduling and activity history via data storage. The tractors are then digitally integrated with McCormick Farm, an App created to facilitate farm management from an agronomic point of view. The tractor is connected to an intelligent and intuitive system supporting more than 400 different crops. By using the McCormick Farm App, it is possible to view performance and work reports, access prescription maps and identify fences and obstacles. This allows each area of the farm to be governed in an optimised manner.

The McCormick X7.6 is powered by a 6-cylinder FPT NEF 67 engine that meets Stage V emission requirements. The 4-stage continuously variable VT-Drive transmission allows a top speed of 50 km/h (in eco mode and where permitted). The independent front suspension IFS (hydraulically suspended and electronically controlled) ensures high comfort and full driving safety on the road and in the field.

The Clever Cab is also available on the X8 Series.

The permanent Observatory of Design ADI (Association for Industrial Design) has selected the new Clever Cab for publication in the ADI Design Index 2024.
