Case-IH 9130 or Fiat 44-23?
Which should you choose?
The figures split: the Case-IH 9130 is ahead on hydraulic flow and top speed; the Fiat 44-23 is ahead on three-point lift.
- The Case-IH 9130 suits road haulage better on this data: 20% (5.0 km/h / 3.1 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 Case-IH 9130 has 20% more hydraulic flow (17.7 L/min / 4.7 gpm) than the Fiat 44-23 (both pump flow, as stated by the source).
- The Fiat 44-23 has 37% more lift (2,233 kg / 4,923 lb) than the Case-IH 9130 (both lift at the hitch ends, as stated by the source).
- The Fiat 44-23 is 16% heavier (1,501 kg / 3,309 lb) than the Case-IH 9130 (both unladen weight, as stated by the source).
- The Case-IH 9130 has 20% more top speed (5.0 km/h / 3.1 mph) than the Fiat 44-23 (both top speed forward, as stated by the source).
- The Case-IH 9130 is newer: production began 8 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 difference is under the 25% threshold, too small to call.
- Even on PTO speeds: the same speeds (1000 rpm).
- Even on drive: every machine is available with four-wheel drive.
- No figure on record for every machine, so no call on: fuel efficiency at the shaft, drawbar power, maximum permissible mass, a creeper range and PTO independence.
