Güldner G 60 (S) or WHITE 2-60?
Which should you choose?
The data can’t decide this. Power at the PTO shaft cannot be compared: the G 60 (S) has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft; the 2-60 has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft.
- The WHITE 2-60 suits road haulage better on this data: 14% (3.8 km/h / 2.3 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 60 (S) is 17% heavier (409 kg / 902 lb) than the WHITE 2-60 (both unladen weight, as stated by the source).
- The WHITE 2-60 has 14% more top speed (3.8 km/h / 2.3 mph) than the Güldner G 60 (S) (both top speed forward, as stated by the source).
- The Güldner G 60 (S) offers 1000 rpm at the PTO, which the WHITE 2-60 does not (as stated by the sources).
- The WHITE 2-60 is available with four-wheel drive; the Güldner G 60 (S) is two-wheel drive (as stated by the sources).
- The WHITE 2-60 is newer: production began 8 years later. We hold no parts-availability data, so there is no call on parts.
- Even on forward gears (both forward gears, as stated by the source): the figures vary by configuration and the ranges overlap.
- Even on PTO independence: every PTO is independent.
- Not comparable on power at the PTO shaft: the G 60 (S) has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft; the 2-60 has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft.
- Not comparable on three-point lift: the G 60 (S): lift at the hitch ends, as stated by the source (Traktorenlexikon, “Güldner G 60”); the 2-60: lift through the full range 610 mm behind the ends, as stated by the source (Traktorenlexikon, “White 2-60”) — 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 and a creeper range.
