The Deutz‑Fahr 6160 belongs to the tractor group and was built in the specified production period. It is fitted with a six‑cylinder engine with a displacement of 6,057 cm³. The maximum torque is 672 Nm and the transmission is available as 24V/24R or continuously variable. Overall dimensions are 4,686 mm in length and 2,500 mm in width, and the kerb weight is 5,870 kg. Fuel tank capacity is 345 l and the lift category is Cat II/III.
A torque of 672 Nm allows the machine to pull heavy implements and handle demanding field tasks, especially deep ploughing or large harvesting equipment. The 6,057 cm³ displacement provides sufficient power for continuous operation under high load. The 5,870 kg weight gives a stable ground pressure, improving traction on soft ground. Choosing between a 24‑gear manual gearbox and a continuously variable unit lets the operator match gear ratios precisely to working conditions, while the 345‑liter tank enables long operating periods without frequent refuelling. The Cat II/III lift category defines the allowable lifting force for mounted tools.
The 6160 is suited for medium to large agricultural operations that perform heavy field work such as soil cultivation, direct seeding and pulling large implements. Its size and high torque make it particularly appropriate for extensive acreage where strong drawbar pull and long work cycles are required. The combination of a robust chassis, large fuel capacity and flexible transmission options makes it a fitting choice for demanding tasks in modern farming.
Deutz-Fahr – other models: the collective page of tractors outside the named ranges, from the MK3-generation classics through the 4 and 5 series to models with KEYLINE and TTV specification
This page gathers the Deutz-Fahr tractors the register could not assign to a named range – from older model years such as the 100 to 260 MK3 range through the four-cylinder 4 series (4.5, 4.56, 4.85, 4006) to the broad mid-range 5 series with types from 5060 to 5120. Deutz, founded in 1864 by Nikolaus Otto in Cologne as an engine works, merged its tractor business with that of the Fahr machinery works of Gottmadingen in 1968 to form Deutz-Fahr; since 1995 the brand has belonged to the Italian SAME-Deutz-Fahr group (SDF), which builds the tractors in Lauingen on the Danube in Bavaria. In the 5 series the type designation clearly tracks the power: the 5090 has about 90 hp, the 5105 about 105 hp, the 5115 about 115 hp; the suffixes KEYLINE, ECOLINE and TTV denote the equipment level and stepless transmission, D and DT four-wheel drive.

The register lists here 213 versions with 35 to 211.1 kW (47 to 268 hp) from three- to six-cylinders of 1,758 to 7,146 cm³, unladen weights from 2,800 to 10,725 kg, gross weights from 4,500 to 16,000 kg, lengths from 2,980 to 5,820 mm, widths from 2,008 to 2,944 mm and heights from 2,020 to 3,225 mm.
Deutz-Fahr is one of Europe's longest-established tractor brands and a fixture in the mid and upper power segment in Germany, Italy and much of southern Europe; the brand's distinctive green paint and cab design have shaped its image for decades.
On used tractors, engine condition and rust on the bodywork count on the older MK3 and 4-series models, on the 5 series the transmission (mechanical, KEYLINE or stepless TTV), hydraulics and electronics, and on the DF and G variants the condition of the four-wheel-drive clutch; parts run through the SDF network and in part through Same and Lamborghini workshops.

What to check before buying
- Check the hour meter against the service records — a replaced instrument is the most common gap.
- Compare the data plate and chassis number with the papers.
- Check the weights in the papers against the figures here — attachments change them.
- Shift the gearbox cold and warm — jumps only show up at temperature.
- Load the hydraulics and watch for sag.
- Ask about parts availability for this build year — the running costs hang on it.
