Deutz-Fahr AgroStar 6.28 or ZETOR 12111/12145?

Which should you choose?

The data can’t decide this. Power at the PTO shaft cannot be compared: the AgroStar 6.28 has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft; the 12111/12145 has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft.

  • The Deutz-Fahr AgroStar 6.28 suits loader and hydraulic implement work better on this data: 15% (7.2 L/min / 1.9 gpm) more hydraulic flow.

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 Deutz-Fahr AgroStar 6.28 has 15% more hydraulic flow (7.2 L/min / 1.9 gpm) than the ZETOR 12111/12145 (both pump flow, as stated by the source).
  • The Deutz-Fahr AgroStar 6.28 has 150% more forward gears (24 gears) than the ZETOR 12111/12145 (both forward gears, as stated by the source).
  • The Deutz-Fahr AgroStar 6.28 offers 750 rpm at the PTO, which the ZETOR 12111/12145 does not (as stated by the sources).
  • The Deutz-Fahr AgroStar 6.28 is newer: production began 9 years later. We hold no parts-availability data, so there is no call on parts.
  • Even on weight (both unladen weight, as stated by the source): the difference is under the 10% threshold, too small to call.
  • Even on top speed (both top speed forward, as stated by the source): the figures vary by configuration and the ranges overlap.
  • Even on drive: every machine is available with four-wheel drive.
  • Not comparable on power at the PTO shaft: the AgroStar 6.28 has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft; the 12111/12145 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, three-point lift, maximum permissible mass, a creeper range and PTO independence.
