John Deere 3055 or Lamborghini R-1056 (DT)?

Which should you choose?

The data can’t decide this. Power at the PTO shaft cannot be compared: the 3055 has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft; the R-1056 (DT) has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft.

  • The John Deere 3055 suits loader and hydraulic implement work better on this data: 91% (43.5 L/min / 11.5 gpm) more hydraulic flow.
  • The Lamborghini R-1056 (DT) suits heavy draft work (ploughing, cultivating) better on this data: four-wheel drive.
  • The John Deere 3055 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.
