Deutz-Fahr DX 6.10 or SAME Buffalo DT?

Which should you choose?

On performance, every comparable figure that differs favours the Deutz-Fahr DX 6.10: hydraulic flow and three-point lift. It is also ahead on top speed.

  • The Deutz-Fahr DX 6.10 suits loader and hydraulic implement work better on this data: 85% (25.6 L/min / 6.8 gpm) more hydraulic flow and 73% (2,200 kg / 4,850 lb) more three-point lift.
  • The Deutz-Fahr DX 6.10 suits road haulage better on this data: 20% (5.0 km/h / 3.1 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.
