Hürlimann H-6115 Elite or SAME Buffalo 130 (DT)?
Which should you choose?
On performance, every comparable figure that differs favours the Hürlimann H-6115 Elite: hydraulic flow. It is also ahead on top speed.
- The Hürlimann H-6115 Elite suits loader and hydraulic implement work better on this data: 74% (25.9 L/min / 6.8 gpm) more hydraulic flow.
- The Hürlimann H-6115 Elite suits road haulage better on this data: 20% (5.0 km/h / 3.1 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 Hürlimann H-6115 Elite has 74% more hydraulic flow (25.9 L/min / 6.8 gpm) than the SAME Buffalo 130 (DT) (both pump flow, as stated by the source).
- The Hürlimann H-6115 Elite is 13% heavier (580 kg / 1,279 lb) than the SAME Buffalo 130 (DT) (both unladen weight, as stated by the source).
- The Hürlimann H-6115 Elite has 20% more top speed (5.0 km/h / 3.1 mph) than the SAME Buffalo 130 (DT) (both top speed forward, as stated by the source).
- The Hürlimann H-6115 Elite is newer: production began 13 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.
- Even on PTO speeds: the same speeds (540, 1000 rpm).
- Even on drive: every machine is available with four-wheel drive.
- Not comparable on three-point lift: the H-6115 Elite: lift through the full range at an unstated point, as stated by the source (Traktorenlexikon, “Hürlimann 6115 XB Elite”); the Buffalo 130 (DT): lift at the hitch ends, as stated by the source (Traktorenlexikon, “SAME Buffalo 130”) — 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, maximum permissible mass, a creeper range and PTO independence.
