Deutz (KHD) F2L 514/54 or Renault Super 5?
Which should you choose?
On performance, no comparable figure differs by more than its threshold: on this data the machines are level. On features, the Renault Super 5 is ahead on top speed and PTO independence.
- The Renault Super 5 suits PTO-driven implements (mowers, balers, pumps) better on this data: an independent PTO.
- The Renault Super 5 suits road haulage better on this data: 25% (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.

What does this mean in plain words?
- The Deutz F2L 514/54 is 18% heavier (298 kg / 657 lb) than the Renault Super 5 (both unladen weight, as stated by the source).
- The Renault Super 5 has 25% more top speed (5.0 km/h / 3.1 mph) than the Deutz F2L 514/54 (both top speed forward, as stated by the source).
- The Renault Super 5 has an independent PTO; the Deutz F2L 514/54’s is dependent (stops with the clutch).
- The Renault Super 5 is newer: production began 8 years later. We hold no parts-availability data, so there is no call on parts.
- Even on power at the PTO shaft (both power at the PTO, claimed): the difference is under the 10% threshold for claimed figures, too small to call.
- Even on forward gears (both forward gears, as stated by the source): the figures vary by configuration and the ranges overlap.
- Even on drive: all two-wheel drive.
- Not comparable on three-point lift: the F2L 514/54: lift at an unstated point, as stated by the source (Traktorenlexikon, “Deutz F2L 514/54”); the Super 5: lift at the hitch ends, as stated by the source (Traktorenlexikon, “Renault Super 5 R7054”) — 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, hydraulic flow, maximum permissible mass, a creeper range and PTO speeds.
