Lamborghini R-1556 DT or Massey Ferguson MF 3655 (A)?

Which should you choose?

The data can’t decide this. Power at the PTO shaft cannot be compared: the R-1556 DT has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft; the MF 3655 (A) has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft.

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 Lamborghini R-1556 DT is 18% heavier (940 kg / 2,072 lb) than the Massey Ferguson MF 3655 (A) (both unladen weight, as stated by the source).
  • The Massey Ferguson MF 3655 (A) is newer: production began 9 years later. We hold no parts-availability data, so there is no call on parts.
  • Even on hydraulic flow (both pump flow, 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 figures vary by configuration and the ranges overlap.
  • Even on PTO speeds: the same speeds (540, 1000 rpm).
  • Even on PTO independence: every PTO is independent.
  • Even on drive: every machine is available with four-wheel drive.
  • Not comparable on power at the PTO shaft: the R-1556 DT has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft; the MF 3655 (A) has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft.
  • No figure on record for every machine, so no call on: fuel efficiency at the shaft, drawbar power, three-point lift, maximum permissible mass and a creeper range.
