What does this mean in plain words?

  • The Fendt Farmer 305 LSA has 20% more top speed (5.0 km/h / 3.1 mph) than the Hürlimann D-200 SA Synchromatic (both top speed forward, as stated by the source).
  • The Fendt Farmer 305 LSA is newer: production began 13 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 weight (both unladen weight, as stated by the source): the difference is under the 10% threshold, too small to call.
