ALLIS-CHALMERS Modell-WD or Renault E 30?
Which should you choose?
The data can’t decide this. Power at the PTO shaft cannot be compared: the Modell-WD has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft; the E 30 has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft.
- The Renault E 30 suits loader and hydraulic implement work better on this data: 177% (8.3 L/min / 2.2 gpm) more hydraulic flow.
- The Renault E 30 suits road haulage better on this data: 56% (9.0 km/h / 5.6 mph) more top speed.
Generated by rule set compare@4 from the figures on the side-by-side table, allowed by route “the same stated configuration”. Measured figures are compared only with measured, claimed only with claimed, at the same test condition; differences within each figure’s tolerance are not called.

What does this mean in plain words?
- The Renault E 30 has 177% more hydraulic flow (8.3 L/min / 2.2 gpm) than the ALLIS-CHALMERS Modell-WD (both pump flow, as stated by the source).
- The Renault E 30 has 50% more forward gears (2 gears) than the ALLIS-CHALMERS Modell-WD (both forward gears, as stated by the source).
- The Renault E 30 has 56% more top speed (9.0 km/h / 5.6 mph) than the ALLIS-CHALMERS Modell-WD (both top speed forward, as stated by the source).
- The Renault E 30 is newer: production began 8 years later. We hold no parts-availability data, so there is no call on parts.
- Even on weight (both unladen weight, as stated by the source): the difference is under the 10% threshold, too small to call.
- Even on drive: all two-wheel drive.
- Not comparable on power at the PTO shaft: the Modell-WD has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft; the E 30 has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft.
- Not comparable on three-point lift: the Modell-WD: lift at an unstated point, as stated by the source (Traktorenlexikon, “Allis-Chalmers WD”); the E 30: lift at the hitch ends, as stated by the source (Traktorenlexikon, “Renault E30 R3050/R3051”) — not the same quantity, basis and condition.
- No figure on record for every machine, so no call on: fuel efficiency at the shaft, drawbar power, maximum permissible mass, a creeper range, PTO speeds and PTO independence.
