Agco RT-120 (Traktorenlexikon) or Fendt 413 Vario?
Which should you choose?
The data can’t decide this. Power at the PTO shaft cannot be compared: the RT-120 has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft; the 413 Vario has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft.
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 RT-120 is 27% heavier (1,485 kg / 3,274 lb) than the Fendt 413 Vario (both unladen weight, as stated by the source).
- Even on gears: every machine is stepless.
- Even on top speed (both top speed forward, 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 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 RT-120 has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft; the 413 Vario 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 RT-120: lift at the hitch ends, as stated by the source (Traktorenlexikon, “AGCO RT 120”); the 413 Vario: lift at an unstated point, as stated by the source (Traktorenlexikon, “Fendt 413 Vario”) — 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, hydraulic flow, maximum permissible mass, a creeper range and PTO independence.
