New Holland T 5040 or ZETOR 95?
Which should you choose?
The figures split: the New Holland T 5040 is ahead on hydraulic flow; the ZETOR 95 is ahead on three-point lift and maximum permissible mass.
- The ZETOR 95 suits road haulage better on this data: 29% (1,800 kg / 3,968 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 New Holland T 5040 has 13% more hydraulic flow (7.5 L/min / 2.0 gpm) than the ZETOR 95 (both pump flow, as stated by the source).
- The ZETOR 95 has 22% more lift (1,050 kg / 2,315 lb) than the New Holland T 5040 (both lift at the hitch ends, as stated by the source).
- The ZETOR 95 is 22% heavier (855 kg / 1,885 lb) than the New Holland T 5040 (both unladen weight, as stated by the source).
- The ZETOR 95 has 29% higher maximum permissible mass (1,800 kg / 3,968 lb) than the New Holland T 5040 (both maximum permissible mass, as stated by the source).
- Even on power at the PTO shaft (both power at the PTO, claimed): the difference is under the 10% threshold for claimed figures, too small to call.
