John Deere XUV 845R Premium Cab vs. John Deere XUV 875R Premium Cab Diesel
A straight, spec-by-spec look for gator buyers across Ohio and Indiana. The numbers are only half the decision.
Is the John Deere XUV 845R Premium Cab right for you?
These two share the same cab, bench seat, 128 in. length, 12 in. ground clearance, 4,000 lb. towing rating and 18.5 cu ft cargo box, so the choice comes down to the engine. The Customer I usually see here wants a cab Gator for year-round work like feeding, fencing, snow and hauling, and wants to know what actually changes between the two.
The XUV 845R Premium Cab runs a 4-cycle gas EFI engine making 53 hp from 49.6 cu in. The XUV 875R Premium Cab Diesel uses a 4-cycle diesel making 22.8 hp from 52.1 cu in. If you want the most available power for towing at its 4,000 lb. rating or climbing with a loaded box, the 845R's 53 hp is a real advantage. It also carries a slightly higher payload at 1,003 lb. versus 983 lb., and weighs 2,397 lb. versus 2,417 lb.
The diesel is the right fit if you want a diesel engine, perhaps because that is the fuel you already keep on your property. Either way, Koenig backs it with parts, service across Ohio and Indiana, and strong John Deere resale. Stop in and talk with your local Koenig team about how you will use it, and we will point you to the right one.
