Massey Ferguson MF 4370 (A) or New Holland T 5070?

Which should you choose?

On performance, every comparable figure that differs favours the New Holland T 5070: three-point lift.

  • The New Holland T 5070 suits loader and hydraulic implement work better on this data: 15% (740 kg / 1,631 lb) more three-point lift.

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.
