The seventh update of the Zetor UR I series took place in spring 1996. However, the model range known as Super Vision did not enter production until 1997 and only reached Finland in autumn 1997. In terms of appearance, this was the largest single change in the line’s history since it began in 1960, and technically it introduced more development than most of the earlier revisions.

Thanks to the new Vision cab, ergonomics improved to nearly Western European standards. The cab was now built in the Czech Republic instead of Slovakia. The gear levers were moved away from the driver’s feet. The non-synchronized reverser lever was on the left and the main gear lever on the right. The two largest models had a top speed of 40 km/h. Four-wheel drive and the differential lock were now engaged electrically via compressed air, and four-wheel drive could be activated on the move. Noise levels, however, remained high. A plastic fuel tank located under the cab was noticeably larger than before, and the front end’s sloping design looked modern.

All four-cylinder engines were now 3.9 liters in capacity. The engines featured a balance shaft and a separate cylinder head for each cylinder. On external hydraulics, the two largest models now had three blocks instead of the previous one, and hydraulic output increased to 50 liters per minute. Lifting capacity was again raised. Draft sensing was still done via the lift arm. The combined oil capacity for hydraulics and transmission was doubled to 64 liters, so there was plenty of oil even for implements. The Carraro-made front axle on the two biggest models had separate wet disc brakes, and the rear disc brakes were now also oil-immersed.

From the late 1990s onward, the reverser could be replaced by an over-drive gearbox, giving 20 + 4 speeds.

Alongside the Super Visions, some markets offered more simply equipped models called 3320 Major through 7340 Major. Production of the Majors continued even after the Proxima models were introduced in 2004.
