Agco GT-65 or Agco LT-70?
Which should you choose?
The data can’t decide this. Power at the PTO shaft cannot be compared: the GT-65 has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft; the LT-70 has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft.
- The Agco GT-65 suits loader and hydraulic implement work better on this data: 32% (12.9 L/min / 3.4 gpm) more hydraulic flow.
- The Agco GT-65 suits road haulage better on this data: 33% (10.0 km/h / 6.2 mph) more top speed.
Generated by rule set compare@4 from the figures on the side-by-side table, allowed by route “the same stated configuration”. Measured figures are compared only with measured, claimed only with claimed, at the same test condition; differences within each figure’s tolerance are not called.

What does this mean in plain words?
- The Agco GT-65 has 32% more hydraulic flow (12.9 L/min / 3.4 gpm) than the Agco LT-70 (both pump flow, as stated by the source).
- The Agco LT-70 is 39% heavier (1,038 kg / 2,288 lb) than the Agco GT-65 (both unladen weight, as stated by the source).
- The Agco GT-65 has 33% more top speed (10.0 km/h / 6.2 mph) than the Agco LT-70 (both top speed forward, as stated by the source).
- Even on forward gears (both forward gears, as stated by the source): the figures vary by configuration and the ranges overlap.
- Even on PTO speeds: the same speeds (540, 1000 rpm).
- Even on PTO independence: every PTO is independent.
- Even on drive: every machine is available with four-wheel drive.
- Same era: production began within 5 years of each other. We hold no parts-availability data, so there is no call on parts.
- Not comparable on power at the PTO shaft: the GT-65 has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft; the LT-70 has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft.
- Not comparable on three-point lift: the GT-65: lift 610 mm behind the hitch ends, as stated by the source (Traktorenlexikon, “AGCO GT 65”); the LT-70: lift at the hitch ends, as stated by the source (Traktorenlexikon, “AGCO LT 70”) — not the same quantity, basis and condition.
- No figure on record for every machine, so no call on: fuel efficiency at the shaft, drawbar power, maximum permissible mass and a creeper range.
