IMT 545 De Luxe or ZETOR 4911?
Which should you choose?
The figures split: the ZETOR 4911 is ahead on hydraulic flow and PTO speeds; the IMT 545 De Luxe is ahead on three-point lift.
- The ZETOR 4911 suits PTO-driven implements (mowers, balers, pumps) better on this data: offers 1000 rpm.
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.

| Which is newer, and what about parts? | 1986–1996 | 1977–1980 | Ahead (a fact, not an advantage)The IMT 545 De Luxe is newer: production began 9 years later. We hold no parts-availability data, so there is no call on parts. |
What does this mean in plain words?
- The ZETOR 4911 has 57% more hydraulic flow (9.0 L/min / 2.4 gpm) than the IMT 545 De Luxe (both pump flow, as stated by the source).
- The IMT 545 De Luxe has 20% more lift (243 kg / 536 lb) than the ZETOR 4911 (both lift at the hitch ends, as stated by the source).
- The ZETOR 4911 offers 1000 rpm at the PTO, which the IMT 545 De Luxe does not (as stated by the sources).
- The IMT 545 De Luxe 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 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 figures vary by configuration and the ranges overlap.
- Even on top speed (both top speed forward, as stated by the source): the difference is under the 10% threshold, too small to call.
- Even on drive: all two-wheel drive.
- 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.
