Nuffield 4/65 (465) or ZETOR 6711?
Which should you choose?
On performance, every comparable figure that differs favours the Nuffield 4/65 (465): hydraulic flow. It is also ahead on top speed. On features, the ZETOR 6711 is ahead on drive.
- The Nuffield 4/65 (465) suits loader and hydraulic implement work better on this data: 50% (10.0 L/min / 2.6 gpm) more hydraulic flow.
- The ZETOR 6711 suits heavy draft work (ploughing, cultivating) better on this data: four-wheel drive.
- The Nuffield 4/65 (465) 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.

What does this mean in plain words?
- The Nuffield 4/65 (465) has 50% more hydraulic flow (10.0 L/min / 2.6 gpm) than the ZETOR 6711 (both pump flow, as stated by the source).
- The Nuffield 4/65 (465) has 20% more top speed (5.0 km/h / 3.1 mph) than the ZETOR 6711 (both top speed forward, as stated by the source).
- The ZETOR 6711 is available with four-wheel drive; the Nuffield 4/65 (465) is two-wheel drive (as stated by the sources).
- The ZETOR 6711 is newer: production began 5 years later. We hold no parts-availability data, so there is no call on parts.
- 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.
- 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 figures vary by configuration and the ranges overlap.
- Even on PTO speeds: the same speeds (540 rpm).
- No figure on record for every machine, so no call on: fuel efficiency at the shaft, drawbar power, three-point lift, maximum permissible mass, a creeper range and PTO independence.
