Case-IH 5150 Maxxum or Lamborghini R-1256 (DT)?
Which should you choose?
The data can’t decide this. Power at the PTO shaft cannot be compared: the 5150 Maxxum has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft; the R-1256 (DT) has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft.
- The Case-IH 5150 Maxxum suits loader and hydraulic implement work better on this data: 56% (27.0 L/min / 7.1 gpm) more hydraulic flow.
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 Case-IH 5150 Maxxum has 56% more hydraulic flow (27.0 L/min / 7.1 gpm) than the Lamborghini R-1256 (DT) (both pump flow, as stated by the source).
- The Case-IH 5150 Maxxum is 16% heavier (740 kg / 1,631 lb) than the Lamborghini R-1256 (DT) (both unladen weight, as stated by the source).
- The Case-IH 5150 Maxxum is newer: production began 14 years later. We hold no parts-availability data, so there is no call on parts.
- Even on forward gears (both forward gears, as stated by the source): the figures vary by configuration and the ranges overlap.
- Even on top speed (both top speed forward, as stated by the source): the figures vary by configuration and the ranges overlap.
- Even on PTO speeds: the same speeds (540, 1000 rpm).
- Even on PTO independence: every PTO is independent.
- Even on drive: every machine is available with four-wheel drive.
- Not comparable on power at the PTO shaft: the 5150 Maxxum has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft; the R-1256 (DT) has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft.
- No figure on record for every machine, so no call on: fuel efficiency at the shaft, drawbar power, three-point lift, maximum permissible mass and a creeper range.
