Case-IH MXM 120 or Renault 133-54 TX?
Which should you choose?
The data can’t decide this. Power at the PTO shaft cannot be compared: the MXM 120 has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft; the 133-54 TX has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft.
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 MXM 120 has 196% more hydraulic flow (80.4 L/min / 21.2 gpm) than the Renault 133-54 TX (both pump flow, as stated by the source).

- Not comparable on power at the PTO shaft: the MXM 120 has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft; the 133-54 TX has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft.
- No figure on record for every machine, so no call on: fuel efficiency at the shaft, drawbar power, a creeper range and PTO independence.
