Fendt 924 Vario or Fendt Favorit 822 LSE?
Which should you choose?
The data can’t decide this. Power at the PTO shaft cannot be compared: the 924 Vario 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.
- The Fendt 924 Vario suits road haulage better on this data: 25% (3,000 kg / 6,614 lb) more maximum permissible mass.
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.
