Steyr has redesigned its flagship tractor model Terrus CVT. Full S-Fleet wireless connectivity package now allows instant data transfer and remote monitoring.
As with the previous range, introduced in 2015, the Terrus CVT line comprises three models (250/270/300hp nominal/rated power), all driving through the Steyr CVT transmission.
The redesigned Terrus has been given a new cab with completely revised interior, including a new Multicontroller III armrest, configurable controls, Infomat 1200 touchscreen monitor, tablet engine/transmission instrumentation and – for the first time – Steyr S-Fleet telematics with instant two-way data transfer.
The all-new Multicontroller III armrest incorporates a redesigned multi-function Multicontroller lever, customizable controls including remote valve paddles with LED colour indication – allowing operators to set up their Terrus CVT according to preference – and the new ISOBUS-compatible Infomat 1200 touchscreen monitor.

The high-resolution Infomat 1200 provides an overview of all tractor functions, and allows operation and optimisation of the hydraulics, PTO, engine and transmission using either the touchscreen, new encoder turn-and-press dial or short-cut keys. In addition, it can show camera feeds, to monitor implements at the rear or the front view from road junctions, for example.
Infomat 1200 not only incorporates next-generation S-Guide guidance management, but also new S- Fleet telematics capabilities, eliminating any need for manual/USB data recording/transfer. Tractor and implement operating data are recorded instantly and automatically, and are accessible on the farm PC via the MySTEYR.com web portal, or the S-Fleet mobile app on the manager/owner’s smart device.
It’s also possible to see machine location and monitor performance indicators, allowing observation of when fuel supplies may be needed, for example. Two-way data transfer means data and instructions such as field maps can also be sent to the tractor from a smart device or PC.

If the owner chooses to give permission, their Steyr dealer can also monitor tractors fitted with S- Fleet. This can allow the dealer to, for example, spot early warning signs of any faults, and provide remote service access, thanks to S- Fleet Remote Support. With this feature dealers can even supply software upgrades remotely if required. In addition, they can provide operator in cab support via the S- Fleet Remote View, connecting to the Infomat 1200 screen directly anytime, anywhere.
