Fendt 820 Vario greentec or Fendt Favorit 822 LSE?
Which should you choose?
The data can’t decide this. Power at the PTO shaft cannot be compared: the 820 Vario greentec has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft; the Favorit 822 LSE has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft.
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 820 Vario greentec is newer: production began 11 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 maximum permissible mass (both maximum permissible mass, as stated by the source): the difference is under the 10% threshold, too small to call.
- Transmissions differ in kind: the Fendt 820 Vario greentec is stepless (CVT) and the Fendt Favorit 822 LSE has 44 forward gears — not called.
- Even on top speed (both top speed forward, as stated by the source): the figures vary by configuration and the ranges overlap.
- PTO speeds differ: the Fendt 820 Vario greentec 540/1000 rpm and the Fendt Favorit 822 LSE 750/1000 rpm — each offers a speed the other does not; which matters depends on the implement.
- Even on drive: every machine is available with four-wheel drive.
- Not comparable on power at the PTO shaft: the 820 Vario greentec has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft; the Favorit 822 LSE 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 820 Vario greentec: lift at the hitch ends, as stated by the source (Traktorenlexikon, “Fendt 820 Vario greentec”); the Favorit 822 LSE: lift at an unstated point, as stated by the source (Traktorenlexikon, “Fendt Favorit 822”) — 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, a creeper range and PTO independence.
