CaseIH Magnum 235 vs CaseIH STX275

Verdict: CaseIH Magnum 235 vs CaseIH STX275

The CaseIH Magnum 235 and the CaseIH STX275 are both tractors — here is how they stack up on the figures that matter. CaseIH STX275 leads on rated power with 239 hp against 235 hp. CaseIH Magnum 235 is the lighter machine (12,328 kg vs 14,417 kg), which helps on soft ground and transport, while the heavier model carries more ballast for traction-limited draft work.
