Case IH Magnum 250-380 CVX

In the autumn of 2014, the Magnums entering production were fitted with the newest 8.7-litre engines meeting current emissions requirements, relying solely on urea injection without a particulate filter or exhaust-gas recirculation. Power ratings—especially at the lower end of the range—had increased more than their model numbers suggested. With the exception of the 250, all turbochargers featured electronically controlled variable geometry.

The transmission was an 18+4-speed full powershift, which in Europe was typically paired with an additional gear to allow a 50 km/h top speed. As an option, a 6-speed creeper gearbox was available. The transmission automation (APM) selected the optimal gear and engine speed based on the travel speed set by the operator’s lever and the power demand. The alternative gearbox introduced the previous year was the stepless CVX. The hydraulic system used an adjustable-displacement pump offered in 166 l/min, 225 l/min or, with a dual-pump option, 282 l/min capacities. Hydraulic front-axle suspension was optional; cab suspension was not offered. Nearly all controls were concentrated on the right-hand armrest, with gauges mounted on the right front pillar. The cab roof was redesigned and fitted with LED and xenon work lights, and overall noise level was reduced to 67–68 dB. In Finland, standard equipment included headland management, automatic 4WD and differential-lock engagement, cab suspension, automatic climate control, a heated active seat and a hydraulically sliding rear hitch.

The Magnum CVX was named Tractor of the Year 2015. In 2015 Case IH also introduced the Magnum Rowtrac, replacing the rear wheels with tracks.
