Hürlimann H-468 "Prestige" or International Harvester 1055 XL?
Which should you choose?
The data can’t decide this. Power at the PTO shaft cannot be compared: the H-468 "Prestige" has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft; the 1055 XL has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft.
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 International Harvester 1055 XL is 42% heavier (1,290 kg / 2,844 lb) than the Hürlimann H-468 "Prestige" (both unladen weight, as stated by the source).
- The Hürlimann H-468 "Prestige" 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 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 drive: every machine is available with four-wheel drive.
- Not comparable on power at the PTO shaft: the H-468 "Prestige" has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft; the 1055 XL 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 H-468 "Prestige": lift through the full range at the hitch ends, as stated by the source (Traktorenlexikon, “Hürlimann H 468 Prestige”); the 1055 XL: lift at an unstated point, as stated by the source (Traktorenlexikon, “IHC 1055 XL”) — 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 independence.
