Hürlimann H-466 (A) or Massey Ferguson MF 275 (A)?

Which should you choose?

On performance, no comparable figure differs by more than its threshold: on this data the machines are level. On features, the Hürlimann H-466 (A) is ahead on top speed and PTO speeds.

  • The Hürlimann H-466 (A) suits PTO-driven implements (mowers, balers, pumps) better on this data: offers 1000 rpm.
  • The Hürlimann H-466 (A) suits road haulage better on this data: 20% (5.0 km/h / 3.1 mph) more top speed.

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 Hürlimann H-466 (A) has 20% more top speed (5.0 km/h / 3.1 mph) than the Massey Ferguson MF 275 (A) (both top speed forward, as stated by the source).
  • The Hürlimann H-466 (A) offers 1000 rpm at the PTO, which the Massey Ferguson MF 275 (A) does not (as stated by the sources).
  • The Hürlimann H-466 (A) is newer: production began 8 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.
  • Even on forward gears (both forward gears, as stated by the source): the difference is under the 25% threshold, too small to call.
  • Even on drive: every machine is available with four-wheel drive.
  • Not comparable on three-point lift: the H-466 (A): lift through the full range at the hitch ends, as stated by the source (Traktorenlexikon, “Hürlimann H 466”); the MF 275 (A): lift at the hitch ends, as stated by the source (Traktorenlexikon, “Massey Ferguson MF 275”) — 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, maximum permissible mass, a creeper range and PTO independence.
