Fiat F-130 DT or Renault 145-14 TX?
Which should you choose?
On performance, every comparable figure that differs favours the Fiat F-130 DT: hydraulic flow. It is also ahead on forward gears.
- The Fiat F-130 DT suits loader and hydraulic implement work better on this data: 41% (16.5 L/min / 4.4 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 Fiat F-130 DT has 41% more hydraulic flow (16.5 L/min / 4.4 gpm) than the Renault 145-14 TX (both pump flow, as stated by the source).
- The Renault 145-14 TX is 13% heavier (720 kg / 1,587 lb) than the Fiat F-130 DT (both unladen weight, as stated by the source).
- The Fiat F-130 DT has 33% more forward gears (4 gears) than the Renault 145-14 TX (both forward gears, as stated by the source).
- The Fiat F-130 DT is newer: production began 9 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 PTO speeds: the same speeds (540, 1000 rpm).
- Even on PTO independence: every PTO is independent.
- Even on drive: every machine is available with four-wheel drive.
- Not comparable on three-point lift: the F-130 DT: lift 610 mm behind the hitch ends, as stated by the source (Traktorenlexikon, “Fiatagri F130 DT”); the 145-14 TX: lift at the hitch ends, as stated by the source (Traktorenlexikon, “Renault 145-14 TX/RE R7942”) — 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, maximum permissible mass and a creeper range.
