Which should you choose?

On performance, every comparable figure that differs favours the New Holland 3235: hydraulic flow and three-point lift. It is also ahead on top speed. On features, the Lamborghini 450 DT is ahead on PTO speeds and drive.

  • The Lamborghini 450 DT suits PTO-driven implements (mowers, balers, pumps) better on this data: offers 1000 rpm.
  • The New Holland 3235 suits loader and hydraulic implement work better on this data: 393% (27.9 L/min / 7.4 gpm) more hydraulic flow and 41% (490 kg / 1,080 lb) more three-point lift.
  • The New Holland 3235 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.
