Fiat F-110 DT or John Deere 4040 (A)?

Which should you choose?

The data can’t decide this. Power at the PTO shaft cannot be compared: the F-110 DT has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft; the 4040 (A) 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 Fiat F-110 DT is newer: production began 13 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.
  • Even on forward gears (both forward gears, as stated by the source): the figures vary by configuration and the ranges overlap.
  • Even on top speed (both top speed forward, as stated by the source): the figures vary by configuration and the ranges overlap.
  • Even on PTO speeds: the same speeds (540, 1000 rpm).
  • Even on drive: every machine is available with four-wheel drive.
  • Not comparable on power at the PTO shaft: the F-110 DT has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft; the 4040 (A) 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 F-110 DT: lift 610 mm behind the hitch ends, as stated by the source (Traktorenlexikon, “Fiatagri F110 DT”); the 4040 (A): lift at the hitch ends, as stated by the source (Traktorenlexikon, “John Deere 4040”) — 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.
