Eicher 635 K or URSUS 2812?
Which should you choose?
The data can’t decide this. Power at the PTO shaft cannot be compared: the 635 K has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft; the 2812 has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft.
- The Eicher 635 K suits loader and hydraulic implement work better on this data: 134% (25.2 L/min / 6.7 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 Eicher 635 K has 134% more hydraulic flow (25.2 L/min / 6.7 gpm) than the URSUS 2812 (both pump flow, as stated by the source).
- The URSUS 2812 is 34% heavier (510 kg / 1,124 lb) than the Eicher 635 K (both unladen weight, as stated by the source).
- The Eicher 635 K has 38% more forward gears (3 gears) than the URSUS 2812 (both forward gears, as stated by the source).
- Even on top speed (both top speed forward, as stated by the source): the difference is under the 10% threshold, too small to call.
- Even on PTO speeds: the same speeds (540 rpm).
- Even on drive: all two-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 635 K has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft; the 2812 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 635 K: lift at an unstated point, as stated by the source (Traktorenlexikon, “Eicher 635 K”); the 2812: lift at the hitch ends, as stated by the source (Traktorenlexikon, “Ursus 2812”) — 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, maximum permissible mass, a creeper range and PTO independence.
