Fiat 140-90 (DT) or OLIVER 2655?
Which should you choose?
On performance, every comparable figure that differs favours the OLIVER 2655: hydraulic flow. On features, the Fiat 140-90 (DT) is ahead on forward gears and PTO speeds.
- The Fiat 140-90 (DT) suits PTO-driven implements (mowers, balers, pumps) better on this data: offers 540 rpm.
- The OLIVER 2655 suits loader and hydraulic implement work better on this data: 27% (13.5 L/min / 3.6 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 OLIVER 2655 has 27% more hydraulic flow (13.5 L/min / 3.6 gpm) than the Fiat 140-90 (DT) (both pump flow, as stated by the source).
- The OLIVER 2655 is 55% heavier (3,194 kg / 7,042 lb) than the Fiat 140-90 (DT) (both unladen weight, as stated by the source).
- The Fiat 140-90 (DT) has 60% more forward gears (6 gears) than the OLIVER 2655 (both forward gears, as stated by the source).
- The Fiat 140-90 (DT) offers 540 rpm at the PTO, which the OLIVER 2655 does not (as stated by the sources).
- The Fiat 140-90 (DT) is newer: production began 13 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 top speed (both top speed forward, as stated by the source): the figures vary by configuration and the ranges overlap.
- Even on drive: every machine is available with four-wheel drive.
- No figure on record for every machine, so no call on: fuel efficiency at the shaft, drawbar power, three-point lift, maximum permissible mass, a creeper range and PTO independence.
