CASE-INTERNATIONAL 895 (DT) or VOLVO-BM T 700?
Which should you choose?
On performance, every comparable figure that differs favours the VOLVO-BM T 700: three-point lift. On features, the CASE-INTERNATIONAL 895 (DT) is ahead on top speed, PTO speeds and drive.
- The CASE-INTERNATIONAL 895 (DT) suits PTO-driven implements (mowers, balers, pumps) better on this data: offers 1000 rpm.
- The VOLVO-BM T 700 suits loader and hydraulic implement work better on this data: 13% (316 kg / 697 lb) more three-point lift.
- The CASE-INTERNATIONAL 895 (DT) suits road haulage better on this data: 17% (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.

- The VOLVO-BM T 700 is 33% heavier (1,037 kg / 2,286 lb) than the CASE-INTERNATIONAL 895 (DT) (both unladen weight, as stated by the source).
- The CASE-INTERNATIONAL 895 (DT) has 17% more top speed (5.0 km/h / 3.1 mph) than the VOLVO-BM T 700 (both top speed forward, as stated by the source).
- The CASE-INTERNATIONAL 895 (DT) offers 1000 rpm at the PTO, which the VOLVO-BM T 700 does not (as stated by the sources).
- The CASE-INTERNATIONAL 895 (DT) is available with four-wheel drive; the VOLVO-BM T 700 is two-wheel drive (as stated by the sources).
- The CASE-INTERNATIONAL 895 (DT) is newer: production began 14 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 figures vary by configuration and the ranges overlap.
- No figure on record for every machine, so no call on: fuel efficiency at the shaft, drawbar power, hydraulic flow, maximum permissible mass, a creeper range and PTO independence.
