Deutz-Fahr Agrotron 215 or Steyr 9200 a?
Which should you choose?
The data can’t decide this. Power at the PTO shaft cannot be compared: the Agrotron 215 has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft; the 9200 a has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft.
- The Deutz-Fahr Agrotron 215 suits road haulage better on this data: 27% (3,000 kg / 6,614 lb) more maximum permissible mass.
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 215 is 33% heavier (2,110 kg / 4,652 lb) than the Steyr 9200 a (both unladen weight, as stated by the source).
- The Deutz-Fahr Agrotron 215 has 27% higher maximum permissible mass (3,000 kg / 6,614 lb) than the Steyr 9200 a (both maximum permissible mass, as stated by the source).
- The Steyr 9200 a has 33% more forward gears (8 gears) than the Deutz-Fahr Agrotron 215 (both forward gears, as stated by the source).
- The Deutz-Fahr Agrotron 215 is newer: production began 10 years later. We hold no parts-availability data, so there is no call on parts.
- 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 power at the PTO shaft: the Agrotron 215 has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft; the 9200 a has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft.
- Not comparable on three-point lift: the Agrotron 215: lift at the hitch ends, as stated by the source (Traktorenlexikon, “Deutz-Fahr Agrotron 215”); the 9200 a: lift through the full range at an unstated point, as stated by the source (Traktorenlexikon, “Steyr 9200”) — 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, hydraulic flow, a creeper range and PTO independence.
