International Harvester 464 or Lamborghini R-503 (DT)?

Which should you choose?

On performance, every comparable figure that differs favours the Lamborghini R-503 (DT): three-point lift. It is also ahead on forward gears and drive. On features, the International Harvester 464 is ahead on top speed and PTO speeds.

  • The International Harvester 464 suits PTO-driven implements (mowers, balers, pumps) better on this data: offers 1000 rpm.
  • The Lamborghini R-503 (DT) suits loader and hydraulic implement work better on this data: 70% (1,050 kg / 2,315 lb) more three-point lift.
  • The International Harvester 464 suits road haulage better on this data: 57% (13.0 km/h / 8.1 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.
