Deutz (KHD) D 5006 V/VA or Fendt F 345 GT?
Which should you choose?
The data can’t decide this. Power at the PTO shaft cannot be compared: the D 5006 V/VA has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft; the F 345 GT has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft.
- The Fendt F 345 GT suits road haulage better on this data: 60% (15.0 km/h / 9.3 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.
