AGRIFULL A-140 DT Turbo or Deutz-Fahr DX 160?
Which should you choose?
On performance, every comparable figure that differs favours the Deutz-Fahr DX 160: hydraulic flow. On features, the AGRIFULL A-140 DT Turbo is ahead on PTO speeds.
- The AGRIFULL A-140 DT Turbo suits PTO-driven implements (mowers, balers, pumps) better on this data: offers 540 rpm.
- The Deutz-Fahr DX 160 suits loader and hydraulic implement work better on this data: 15% (7.6 L/min / 2.0 gpm) more hydraulic flow.
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 Deutz-Fahr DX 160 has 15% more hydraulic flow (7.6 L/min / 2.0 gpm) than the AGRIFULL A-140 DT Turbo (both pump flow, as stated by the source).
- The AGRIFULL A-140 DT Turbo is 26% heavier (1,400 kg / 3,086 lb) than the Deutz-Fahr DX 160 (both unladen weight, as stated by the source).
- The AGRIFULL A-140 DT Turbo offers 540 rpm at the PTO, which the Deutz-Fahr DX 160 does not (as stated by the sources).
- The AGRIFULL A-140 DT Turbo is newer: production began 9 years later. We hold no parts-availability data, so there is no call on parts.
- Even on power at the PTO shaft (both power at the PTO, claimed): the difference is under the 10% threshold for claimed figures, too small to call.
- Even on forward gears (both forward gears, as stated by the source): the figures vary by configuration and the ranges overlap.
- 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 independence: every PTO is independent.
- Even on drive: every machine is available with four-wheel drive.
- Not comparable on three-point lift: the A-140 DT Turbo: lift 610 mm behind the hitch ends, as stated by the source (Traktorenlexikon, “Agrifull A-140 Turbo”); the DX 160: lift at the hitch ends, as stated by the source (Traktorenlexikon, “Deutz-Fahr DX 160”) — 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.
