Fendt 718 gen 3 vs 718 gen 5/6

[Ormond]

Just wondering how the new models fair powerwise compared to each other in real life work. When we bought our 2010 718 we were encouraged to go up a size....we had an older 716 to get the same power ......let me know if you have any experience ....demo's seem to be a thing of the past around here in Cumbria. Thanks

Concensus I heard is that I think is you need a 720 to compete with the old cab 718, same as you went from 716 to 718!!

All I can add is I went from old shape 716 to a new shape 720 and it was quite a big difference in power, probably more noticeable because of all the changes in the models.On a 724 now and that is a big leap again.

We have a big Fendt user up the road who 10 years ago ran old cab 2x 820s and at least 4x 718 , they switched over to Gen4 718s and 724s and now have switched all the 718s up to 720s but using much the same kit behind them. Basically 90% of the many Fendts around here are either 720s or 724s.
