Deutz-Fahr Agrotron 150 or Fiat 160-90 (DT)?
Which should you choose?
On performance, every comparable figure that differs favours the Deutz-Fahr Agrotron 150: hydraulic flow.
- The Deutz-Fahr Agrotron 150 suits loader and hydraulic implement work better on this data: 66% (33.4 L/min / 8.8 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 Agrotron 150 has 66% more hydraulic flow (33.4 L/min / 8.8 gpm) than the Fiat 160-90 (DT) (both pump flow, as stated by the source).
- The Fiat 160-90 (DT) is 15% heavier (800 kg / 1,764 lb) than the Deutz-Fahr Agrotron 150 (both unladen weight, as stated by the source).
- The Deutz-Fahr Agrotron 150 is newer: production began 13 years later. We hold no parts-availability data, so there is no call on parts.
- Even on power at the PTO shaft (both power at the PTO, claimed): the difference is under the 10% threshold for claimed figures, too small to call.
- Even on maximum permissible mass (both maximum permissible mass, as stated by the source): the difference is under the 10% threshold, too small to call.
- Even on forward gears (both forward gears, as stated by the source): the figures vary by configuration and the ranges overlap.
- Even on top speed (both top speed forward, as stated by the source): the figures vary by configuration and the ranges overlap.
- Even on PTO speeds: the same speeds (540, 1000 rpm).
- Even on drive: every machine is available with four-wheel drive.
- Not comparable on three-point lift: the Agrotron 150: lift through the full range at an unstated point, as stated by the source (Traktorenlexikon, “Deutz-Fahr Agrotron 150”); the 160-90 (DT): lift at the hitch ends, as stated by the source (Traktorenlexikon, “Fiatagri 160-90 DT”) — not the same quantity, basis and condition.
- No figure on record for every machine, so no call on: fuel efficiency at the shaft, drawbar power, a creeper range and PTO independence.
