Massey Ferguson MF 5445 (A) or ZETOR 95?

Which should you choose?

The data can’t decide this. Power at the PTO shaft cannot be compared: the MF 5445 (A) has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft; the 95 has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft.

  • The ZETOR 95 suits loader and hydraulic implement work better on this data: 22% (1,070 kg / 2,359 lb) more three-point lift.

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 ZETOR 95 has 22% more lift (1,070 kg / 2,359 lb) than the Massey Ferguson 5445 (A) (both lift at the hitch ends, as stated by the source).
  • The ZETOR 95 is 19% heavier (745 kg / 1,642 lb) than the Massey Ferguson 5445 (A) (both unladen weight, as stated by the source).

  • The ZETOR 95 is newer: production began 6 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 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.
  • Not comparable on power at the PTO shaft: the MF 5445 (A) has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft; the 95 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, maximum permissible mass, a creeper range and PTO independence.
