Case-IH MXU 100 Maxxum or New Holland T 5050?
Which should you choose?
The figures split: the Case-IH MXU 100 Maxxum is ahead on hydraulic flow and maximum permissible mass; the New Holland T 5050 is ahead on three-point lift.
- The Case-IH MXU 100 Maxxum suits road haulage better on this data: 10% (700 kg / 1,543 lb) more maximum permissible mass.
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.
