New Holland TM 190 (Traktorenlexikon) or VALMET 8750?
Which should you choose?
On performance, every comparable figure that differs favours the New Holland TM 190: hydraulic flow and maximum permissible mass. It is also ahead on PTO speeds. On features, the VALMET 8750 is ahead on forward gears.
- The New Holland TM 190 suits PTO-driven implements (mowers, balers, pumps) better on this data: offers 540 rpm.
- The New Holland TM 190 suits loader and hydraulic implement work better on this data: 46% (34.3 L/min / 9.1 gpm) more hydraulic flow.
- The New Holland TM 190 suits road haulage better on this data: 50% (4,000 kg / 8,818 lb) more maximum permissible mass.
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.
