Fiat 160-90 (DT) or Renault 1451-4?
Which should you choose?
The figures split: the Fiat 160-90 (DT) is ahead on hydraulic flow and PTO speeds; the Renault 1451-4 is ahead on three-point lift.
- The Fiat 160-90 (DT) suits PTO-driven implements (mowers, balers, pumps) better on this data: offers 540 rpm.
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 Fiat 160-90 (DT) has 34% more hydraulic flow (12.8 L/min / 3.4 gpm) than the Renault 1451-4 (both pump flow, as stated by the source).
- The Renault 1451-4 has 85% more lift (2,120 kg / 4,674 lb) than the Fiat 160-90 (DT) (both lift at the hitch ends, as stated by the source).
- The Fiat 160-90 (DT) offers 540 rpm at the PTO, which the Renault 1451-4 does not (as stated by the sources).
- The Fiat 160-90 (DT) is newer: production began 10 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 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 independence: every PTO is independent.
- 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, maximum permissible mass and a creeper range.
