The first German 6-cylinder Internationals 946 and 1046 were introduced in the spring of 1971. They were also the first models to feature a new grille and rectangular headlights. The transmission was a partially synchronized ZF unit, and the hydraulic pump was produced by Bosch. The power take-off was standard with 540/1000 rpm on separate shafts—a solution that was seen in many later models as well. Also standard were two external hydraulic control valves, draft control, and hydrostatic steering. The transmission had 12+5 speeds and, as standard in Finland, a reduction gear that operated with the 1st and 2nd gears. All gears except 1st and 2nd were synchronized. The range gear was also synchronized.

In 1972, the largest model became the turbocharged 1246. It was IH’s first 6-cylinder to not use a separate subframe as a load-bearing structure, and the same change was also made to the 946 and 1046 models. In 1974, the power of the 946 was increased to 90 horsepower. In 1976, the factory-installed Comfort 2000 cab was introduced (shown in the lower picture). The 946 and 1046 were replaced by the 955 and 1055 in 1977, while the 1246 continued until 1980.

In Finland, the power of the 1046 was stated as 110 hp and the 1246 as 130 hp. The corresponding DIN figures were 100 and 122 hp. In Finland, the Turla cab, supported by rubber mounts (shown in the 2nd picture), was used until 1976.
