Deutz-Fahr Agrosun 140 or Fendt Favorit 714 Vario?
Which should you choose?
The data can’t decide this. Power at the PTO shaft cannot be compared: the Agrosun 140 has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft; the Favorit 714 Vario has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft.
- The Fendt Favorit 714 Vario suits loader and hydraulic implement work better on this data: 73% (47.0 L/min / 12.4 gpm) more hydraulic flow.
- The Fendt Favorit 714 Vario suits road haulage better on this data: 29% (2,500 kg / 5,512 lb) more maximum permissible mass and 67% (20.0 km/h / 12.4 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.
