Hürlimann D-180 (A) or OLIVER 1650 (4WD)?
Which should you choose?
On performance, every comparable figure that differs favours the OLIVER 1650 (4WD): hydraulic flow. On features, the Hürlimann D-180 (A) is ahead on top speed and drive.
- The OLIVER 1650 (4WD) suits loader and hydraulic implement work better on this data: 26% (9.5 L/min / 2.5 gpm) more hydraulic flow.
- The Hürlimann D-180 (A) suits road haulage better on this data: 14% (3.0 km/h / 1.9 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 OLIVER 1650 (4WD) has 26% more hydraulic flow (9.5 L/min / 2.5 gpm) than the Hürlimann D-180 (A) (both pump flow, as stated by the source).
- The OLIVER 1650 (4WD) is 17% heavier (525 kg / 1,157 lb) than the Hürlimann D-180 (A) (both unladen weight, as stated by the source).
- The Hürlimann D-180 (A) has 14% more top speed (3.0 km/h / 1.9 mph) than the OLIVER 1650 (4WD) (both top speed forward, as stated by the source).
- The Hürlimann D-180 (A) is available with four-wheel drive; the OLIVER 1650 (4WD) is two-wheel drive (as stated by the sources).
- The Hürlimann D-180 (A) 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 forward gears (both forward gears, as stated by the source): the figures vary by configuration and the ranges overlap.
- No figure on record for every machine, so no call on: fuel efficiency at the shaft, drawbar power, three-point lift, maximum permissible mass, a creeper range, PTO speeds and PTO independence.
