Fiat TS 100 (DT) or SAME Silver 90 (DT)?
Which should you choose?
On performance, every comparable figure that differs favours the Fiat TS 100 (DT): hydraulic flow and three-point lift.
- The Fiat TS 100 (DT) suits loader and hydraulic implement work better on this data: 53% (29.9 L/min / 7.9 gpm) more hydraulic flow and 19% (694 kg / 1,530 lb) more three-point lift.
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 TS 100 (DT) has 53% more hydraulic flow (29.9 L/min / 7.9 gpm) than the SAME Silver 90 (DT) (both pump flow, as stated by the source).
- The Fiat TS 100 (DT) has 19% more lift (694 kg / 1,530 lb) than the SAME Silver 90 (DT) (both lift at the hitch ends, as stated by the source).
- 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 maximum permissible mass (both maximum permissible mass, 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 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.
- Same era: production began within 5 years of each other. We hold no parts-availability data, so there is no call on parts.
- No figure on record for every machine, so no call on: fuel efficiency at the shaft, drawbar power and a creeper range.
