Deutz (KHD) D 30 S-Plantage or Deutz (KHD) D 3006 P?

Which should you choose?

The data can’t decide this. Power at the PTO shaft cannot be compared: the D 30 S-Plantage has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft; the D 3006 P has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft.

  • The Deutz D 3006P suits road haulage better on this data: 67% (1,200 kg / 2,646 lb) more maximum permissible mass and 38% (6.7 km/h / 4.2 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.
