Case-IH CVX-130 or John Deere 6630 Premium?

Which should you choose?

The data can’t decide this. Power at the PTO shaft cannot be compared: the CVX-130 has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft; the 6630 Premium has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft.

  • The Case-IH CVX-130 suits loader and hydraulic implement work better on this data: 71% (50.5 L/min / 13.3 gpm) more hydraulic flow and 12% (900 kg / 1,984 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.
