Landini 165 DT or Steyr 9160 a?
Which should you choose?
The data can’t decide this. Power at the PTO shaft cannot be compared: the 165 DT has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft; the 9160 a has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft.
- The Landini 165 DT suits loader and hydraulic implement work better on this data: 180% (5,400 kg / 11,905 lb) more three-point lift.
- The Landini 165 DT suits road haulage better on this data: 25% (2,800 kg / 6,173 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.

What does this mean in plain words?
- The Landini 165 DT has 180% more lift (5,400 kg / 11,905 lb) than the Steyr 9160 a (both lift at the hitch ends, as stated by the source).
- The Landini 165 DT has 25% higher maximum permissible mass (2,800 kg / 6,173 lb) than the Steyr 9160 a (both maximum permissible mass, as stated by the source).
- Even on weight (both unladen weight, 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 difference is under the 25% threshold, too small to call.
- Even on top speed (both top speed forward, as stated by the source): the difference is under the 10% threshold, too small to call.
- Even on PTO speeds: the same speeds (540, 1000 rpm).
- Even on drive: every machine is available with four-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.
- Not comparable on power at the PTO shaft: the 165 DT has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft; the 9160 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, hydraulic flow, a creeper range and PTO independence.
