Fiat 1380 (DT) or J.I. Case 1175?

Which should you choose?

On performance, every comparable figure that differs favours the J.I. Case 1175: hydraulic flow. On features, the Fiat 1380 (DT) is ahead on forward gears and drive.

  • The J.I. Case 1175 suits loader and hydraulic implement work better on this data: 13% (7.1 L/min / 1.9 gpm) more hydraulic flow.
  • The Fiat 1380 (DT) suits heavy draft work (ploughing, cultivating) better on this data: four-wheel drive.

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 J.I. Case 1175 has 13% more hydraulic flow (7.1 L/min / 1.9 gpm) than the Fiat 1380 (DT) (both pump flow, as stated by the source).
  • The Fiat 1380 (DT) has 50% more forward gears (4 gears) than the J.I. Case 1175 (both forward gears, as stated by the source).
  • The Fiat 1380 (DT) is available with four-wheel drive; the J.I. Case 1175 is two-wheel drive (as stated by the sources).
  • The Fiat 1380 (DT) is newer: production began 7 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 weight (both unladen weight, as stated by the source): the difference is under the 10% threshold, too small to call.
  • 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.
  • 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.
