Lamborghini 120 Champion or Massey Ferguson MF 6180 (A)?
Which should you choose?
The data can’t decide this. Power at the PTO shaft cannot be compared: the 120 Champion has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft; the MF 6180 (A) has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft.
- The Lamborghini 120 Champion suits loader and hydraulic implement work better on this data: 107% (56.3 L/min / 14.9 gpm) more hydraulic flow and 76% (3,710 kg / 8,179 lb) more three-point lift.
- The Lamborghini 120 Champion suits road haulage better on this data: 40% (3,000 kg / 6,614 lb) more maximum permissible mass.
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.
