Agco RT-140 A or New Holland-Fiat G 170?

Which should you choose?

The data can’t decide this. Power at the PTO shaft cannot be compared: the RT-140 A has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft; the G 170 has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft.

  • The New Holland-Fiat G 170 suits loader and hydraulic implement work better on this data: 14% (885 kg / 1,951 lb) more three-point lift.

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.
