Claas Ares 567 or New Holland T 6030 Elite?
Which should you choose?
The data can’t decide this. Power at the PTO shaft cannot be compared: the Ares 567 has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft; the T 6030 Elite has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft.
- The New Holland T 6030 Elite suits road haulage better on this data: 13% (1,000 kg / 2,205 lb) more maximum permissible mass.
Generated by rule set compare@4 from the figures on the side-by-side table, allowed by route “similar machines”. 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.
