Kramer 350 Export or Renault N 72?
Which should you choose?
On performance, every comparable figure that differs favours the Kramer 350 Export: hydraulic flow. On features, the Renault N 72 is ahead on top speed.
- The Kramer 350 Export suits loader and hydraulic implement work better on this data: 33% (5.0 L/min / 1.3 gpm) more hydraulic flow.
- The Renault N 72 suits road haulage better on this data: 14% (3.0 km/h / 1.9 mph) more top speed.
Generated by rule set compare@4 from the figures on the side-by-side table, allowed by route “similar machines”. 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 Kramer 350 Export has 33% more hydraulic flow (5.0 L/min / 1.3 gpm) than the Renault N 72 (both pump flow, as stated by the source).
- The Kramer 350 Export is 13% heavier (200 kg / 441 lb) than the Renault N 72 (both unladen weight, as stated by the source).
- The Renault N 72 has 14% more top speed (3.0 km/h / 1.9 mph) than the Kramer 350 Export (both top speed forward, as stated by the source).
- 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 drive: all two-wheel drive.
- Same era: production began within 5 years of each other. We hold no parts-availability data, so there is no call on parts.
- No figure on record for every machine, so no call on: fuel efficiency at the shaft, drawbar power, three-point lift, maximum permissible mass, a creeper range, PTO speeds and PTO independence.
