Lamborghini 450 DT or Renault 50-12 LB?
Which should you choose?
The data can’t decide this. Power at the PTO shaft cannot be compared: the 450 DT has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft; the 50-12 LB has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft.
- The Renault 50-12 LB suits loader and hydraulic implement work better on this data: 493% (35.0 L/min / 9.2 gpm) more hydraulic flow and 78% (940 kg / 2,072 lb) more three-point lift.
- The Renault 50-12 LB suits road haulage better on this data: 78% (1,860 kg / 4,101 lb) more maximum permissible mass and 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.
