Deutz-Fahr DX 250 or Fendt Favorit 622 LS?
Which should you choose?
The data can’t decide this. Power at the PTO shaft cannot be compared: the DX 250 has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft; the Favorit 622 LS has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft.
- The Fendt Favorit 622 LS suits road haulage better on this data: 30% (9.0 km/h / 5.6 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.

What does this mean in plain words?
- The Fendt Favorit 622 LS has 30% more top speed (9.0 km/h / 5.6 mph) than the Deutz-Fahr DX 250 (both top speed forward, as stated by the source).
- Even on weight (both unladen weight, as stated by the source): the difference is under the 10% threshold, 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 drive: every machine is available with four-wheel drive.
- Same era: production began within 5 years of each other. We hold no parts-availability data, so there is no call on parts.
- Not comparable on power at the PTO shaft: the DX 250 has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft; the Favorit 622 LS 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 DX 250: lift at the hitch ends, as stated by the source (Traktorenlexikon, “Deutz-Fahr DX 250”); the Favorit 622 LS: lift at an unstated point, as stated by the source (Traktorenlexikon, “Fendt Favorit 622 LS/LSA”) — 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, forward gears, a creeper range, PTO speeds and PTO independence.
