Deutz-Fahr IN-trac 6.60 Turbo or J.I. Case 2290?

Which should you choose?

The data can’t decide this. Power at the PTO shaft cannot be compared: the IN-trac 6.60 Turbo has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft; the 2290 has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft.

  • The J.I. Case 2290 suits loader and hydraulic implement work better on this data: 42% (23.5 L/min / 6.2 gpm) more hydraulic flow.
  • The Deutz-Fahr IN-trac 6.60 Turbo suits heavy draft work (ploughing, cultivating) better on this data: four-wheel drive.

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.

  • The Deutz-Fahr IN-trac 6.60 Turbo is newer: production began 8 years later. We hold no parts-availability data, so there is no call on parts.
  • Even on weight (both unladen weight, as stated by the source): the difference is under the 10% threshold, too small to call.
  • 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).
  • Not comparable on power at the PTO shaft: the IN-trac 6.60 Turbo has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft; the 2290 has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft.
  • No figure on record for every machine, so no call on: fuel efficiency at the shaft, drawbar power, three-point lift, maximum permissible mass, a creeper range and PTO independence.
