Fahr D 28 UW or Güldner A 3 K Burgund?
Which should you choose?
On performance, no comparable figure differs by more than its threshold: on this data the machines are level. On features, the Güldner A 3 K Burgund is ahead on forward gears.
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 Fahr D 28 UW is 47% heavier (685 kg / 1,510 lb) than the Güldner A 3 K Burgund (both unladen weight, as stated by the source).
- The Güldner A 3 K Burgund has 60% more forward gears (3 gears) than the Fahr D 28 UW (both forward gears, as stated by the source).
- The Güldner A 3 K Burgund is newer: production began 11 years later. We hold no parts-availability data, so there is no call on parts.
- Even on power at the PTO shaft (both power at the PTO, claimed): the difference is under the 10% threshold for claimed figures, too small to call.
- 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 independence: every PTO is independent.
- Even on drive: all two-wheel drive.
- No figure on record for every machine, so no call on: fuel efficiency at the shaft, drawbar power, hydraulic flow, three-point lift, maximum permissible mass, a creeper range and PTO speeds.
