Renault 301 or UTB 302 Dtce-IF?
Which should you choose?
The data can’t decide this. Power at the PTO shaft cannot be compared: the 301 has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft; the 302 Dtce-IF has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft.
- The UTB 302 Dtce-IF suits heavy draft work (ploughing, cultivating) better on this data: 62% (1,065 kg / 2,348 lb) heavier and four-wheel drive.
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 UTB 302 Dtce-IF has 15% more hydraulic flow (3.3 L/min / 0.9 gpm) than the Renault 301 (both pump flow, as stated by the source).
- The Renault 301 has 70% more lift (840 kg / 1,852 lb) than the UTB 302 Dtce-IF (both lift at the hitch ends, as stated by the source).
- The UTB 302 Dtce-IF is 62% heavier (1,065 kg / 2,348 lb) than the Renault 301 (both unladen weight, as stated by the source).
- The UTB 302 Dtce-IF is available with four-wheel drive; the Renault 301 is two-wheel drive (as stated by the sources).
- The UTB 302 Dtce-IF is newer: production began 8 years later. We hold no parts-availability data, so there is no call on parts.
- Even on forward gears (both forward gears, as stated by the source): the figures vary by configuration and the ranges overlap.
- 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 rpm).
- Not comparable on power at the PTO shaft: the 301 has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft; the 302 Dtce-IF 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.
