The missing stepless transmission was easily added to New Holland’s lineup. The Case IH CVX received a new hood and minor changes to the controls. The result was the New Holland TVT, which was launched in the fall of 2004. The transmission was Steyr’s S-Tronic, featuring three speed ranges. Instead of a throttle pedal, there was a speed pedal, and electronics adjusted the engine speed according to power demand and fuel efficiency. The speed range was either 0–40 km/h or 0–50 km/h. The 40 km/h speed was reached already at 1510 rpm. The gearbox was controlled via buttons on the armrest handle. The direction change lever was located under the steering wheel on the left, in addition to the armrest.

With the TVT, SisuDiesel added a new tractor brand, New Holland, to its product list. All models had a 6.6-liter electronically controlled engine. Power outputs ranged from 137 to 192 hp, with boost power from 158 to 212 hp. The boost power was available on the road and when using the power take-off.

The lift capacity was as much as 9,900 kg. The hydraulics were load-sensing with a flow rate of 105–130 l/min. Four (or five) externally controlled hydraulic valves were electrically operated, and one valve also had a timer control. The power take-off had four speeds, following Steyr’s style. The front axle on the two largest models was equipped with Carraro hydraulic independent suspension. The cab was suspended on all models. Noise level was 72 dB. The TVT was not imported to Finland.
