CaseIH 4240 vs CaseIH MX120 Maxxum

Verdict: CaseIH 4240 vs CaseIH MX120 Maxxum

The CaseIH 4240 and the CaseIH MX120 Maxxum are both tractors — here is how they stack up on the figures that matter. CaseIH MX120 Maxxum leads on rated power with 105 hp against 104 hp. CaseIH 4240 is the lighter machine (6,687 kg vs 11,300 kg), which helps on soft ground and transport, while the heavier model carries more ballast for traction-limited draft work. CaseIH MX120 Maxxum is the newer design (1997 vs 1994). In short: choose the CaseIH MX120 Maxxum for outright pulling power, or the CaseIH 4240 if a tighter budget and lighter footprint matter more.
