Deutz-Fahr Agrosun 140 or New Holland TM 150 (Traktorenlexikon)?

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 TM 150 has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft.

  • The New Holland TM 150 suits loader and hydraulic implement work better on this data: 85% (54.2 L/min / 14.3 gpm) more hydraulic flow and 29% (1,556 kg / 3,430 lb) more three-point lift.
  • The New Holland TM 150 suits road haulage better on this data: 18% (1,500 kg / 3,307 lb) more maximum permissible mass and 33% (10.0 km/h / 6.2 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.
