International Harvester 464 or Steyr 8060 (a)?
Which should you choose?
The figures split: the International Harvester 464 is ahead on hydraulic flow; the Steyr 8060 (a) is ahead on three-point lift, forward gears and drive.
- The Steyr 8060 (a) suits heavy draft work (ploughing, cultivating) better on this data: four-wheel drive.
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 464 has 88% more hydraulic flow (21.3 L/min / 5.6 gpm) than the Steyr 8060 (a) (both pump flow, as stated by the source).
- The Steyr 8060 (a) has 47% more lift (700 kg / 1,543 lb) than the International Harvester 464 (both lift at the hitch ends, as stated by the source).
- The Steyr 8060 (a) has 100% more forward gears (8 gears) than the International Harvester 464 (both forward gears, as stated by the source).
- The Steyr 8060 (a) is available with four-wheel drive; the International Harvester 464 is two-wheel drive (as stated by the sources).
- The Steyr 8060 (a) is newer: production began 6 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 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).
- 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.
