Renault 58-34 MX or UTB U-530 (DTC)?
Which should you choose?
The data can’t decide this. Power at the PTO shaft cannot be compared: the 58-34 MX has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft; the U-530 (DTC) has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft.
- The Renault 58-34 MX suits loader and hydraulic implement work better on this data: 48% (10.5 L/min / 2.8 gpm) more hydraulic flow and 79% (1,270 kg / 2,800 lb) more three-point lift.
- The Renault 58-34 MX suits road haulage better on this data: 25% (6.0 km/h / 3.7 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.
