Bührer Komfort 465 L (A) or Renault 75-12 LS?
Which should you choose?
On performance, every comparable figure that differs favours the Renault 75-12 LS: hydraulic flow and three-point lift. It is also ahead on top speed and PTO speeds. On features, the Bührer Komfort 465 L (A) is ahead on drive.
- The Renault 75-12 LS suits PTO-driven implements (mowers, balers, pumps) better on this data: offers 1000 rpm.
- The Renault 75-12 LS suits loader and hydraulic implement work better on this data: 38% (8.3 L/min / 2.2 gpm) more hydraulic flow and 87% (1,775 kg / 3,913 lb) more three-point lift.
- The Renault 75-12 LS suits road haulage better on this data: 20% (5.0 km/h / 3.1 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.
