AGCO 516G vs AGCO 517H
Verdict: AGCO 516G vs AGCO 517H
The AGCO 516G and the AGCO 517H are both lawn tractors — here is how they stack up on the figures that matter. AGCO 517H leads on rated power with 17 hp against 16 hp. AGCO 517H is the lighter machine (201 kg vs 204 kg), which helps on soft ground and transport, while the heavier model carries more ballast for traction-limited draft work. AGCO 517H is the newer design (2000 vs 1997). In short: choose the AGCO 517H for outright pulling power, or the AGCO 516G if a tighter budget and lighter footprint matter more.
