Güldner G 15 or Warchalowski WT 14?
Which should you choose?
On performance, every comparable figure that differs favours the Güldner G 15: power at the PTO shaft. On features, the Warchalowski WT 14 is ahead on top speed and PTO independence.
- The Warchalowski WT 14 suits road haulage better on this data: 20% (4.0 km/h / 2.5 mph) more top speed.
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 Güldner G 15 has 10% more power at the PTO (1.0 kW / 1.4 hp) than the Warchalowski WT 14 (both power at the PTO, claimed).
- The Warchalowski WT 14 has 20% more top speed (4.0 km/h / 2.5 mph) than the Güldner G 15 (both top speed forward, as stated by the source).
- The Warchalowski WT 14 has an independent PTO; the Güldner G 15’s is dependent (stops with the clutch).
- The Güldner G 15 is newer: production began 9 years later. We hold no parts-availability data, so there is no call on parts.
- 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 difference is under the 25% threshold, too small to call.
- Even on drive: all two-wheel drive.
- Not comparable on three-point lift: the G 15: lift at the hitch ends, as stated by the source (Traktorenlexikon, “Güldner G 15”); the WT 14: lift at an unstated point, as stated by the source (Traktorenlexikon, “Warchalowski WT 14”) — 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, hydraulic flow, maximum permissible mass, a creeper range and PTO speeds.
