Case-IH Magnum 7210 or Steyr CVT 150?
Which should you choose?
On performance, every comparable figure that differs favours the Steyr CVT 150: hydraulic flow.
- The Steyr CVT 150 suits loader and hydraulic implement work better on this data: 10% (11.5 L/min / 3.0 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 Steyr CVT 150 has 10% more hydraulic flow (11.5 L/min / 3.0 gpm) than the Case-IH Magnum 7210 (both pump flow, as stated by the source).
- The Case-IH Magnum 7210 is 20% heavier (1,255 kg / 2,767 lb) than the Steyr CVT 150 (both unladen weight, as stated by the source).
- The Steyr CVT 150 is newer: production began 6 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 maximum permissible mass (both maximum permissible mass, as stated by the source): the difference is under the 10% threshold, too small to call.
- Transmissions differ in kind: the Case-IH Magnum 7210 has 24 forward gears and the Steyr CVT 150 is stepless (CVT) — not called.
- 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 PTO independence: every PTO is independent.
- 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, three-point lift and a creeper range.
