Fiat G 190 or J.I. Case 2590?
Which should you choose?
On performance, every comparable figure that differs favours the Fiat G 190: three-point lift. It is also ahead on forward gears and drive.
- The Fiat G 190 suits loader and hydraulic implement work better on this data: 172% (6,242 kg / 13,761 lb) more three-point lift.
- The Fiat G 190 suits heavy draft work (ploughing, cultivating) better on this data: 23% (1,608 kg / 3,545 lb) heavier and four-wheel drive.
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 G 190 has 172% more lift (6,242 kg / 13,761 lb) than the J.I. Case 2590 (both lift at the hitch ends, as stated by the source).

- The Fiat G 190 is newer: production began 15 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.
