The Fendt 1050 Vario and the Fendt 1159 MT are both tractors — here is how they stack up on the figures that matter. Fendt 1159 MT leads on rated power with 540 hp against 517 hp. Fendt 1050 Vario is the lighter machine (14,000 kg vs 19,365 kg), which helps on soft ground and transport, while the heavier model carries more ballast for traction-limited draft work. Fendt 1159 MT holds more fuel (1000.0 L vs 800 L) for longer stints between fills. Fendt 1050 Vario is the newer design (2024 vs 2017). In short: choose the Fendt 1159 MT for outright pulling power, or the Fendt 1050 Vario if a tighter budget and lighter footprint matter more. Compare the full spec tables below before booking a demo.
