Renault 80-12 SP or WHITE 1470?
Which should you choose?
On performance, every comparable figure that differs favours the Renault 80-12 SP: hydraulic flow. It is also ahead on forward gears, top speed and PTO speeds. On features, the WHITE 1470 is ahead on drive.
- The Renault 80-12 SP suits PTO-driven implements (mowers, balers, pumps) better on this data: offers 1000 rpm.
- The Renault 80-12 SP suits loader and hydraulic implement work better on this data: 16% (4.4 L/min / 1.2 gpm) more hydraulic flow.
- The WHITE 1470 suits heavy draft work (ploughing, cultivating) better on this data: four-wheel drive.
- The Renault 80-12 SP 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.

- The Renault 80-12 SP has 71% more forward gears (5 gears) than the WHITE 1470 (both forward gears, as stated by the source).
- The Renault 80-12 SP has 20% more top speed (5.0 km/h / 3.1 mph) than the WHITE 1470 (both top speed forward, as stated by the source).
- The Renault 80-12 SP offers 1000 rpm at the PTO, which the WHITE 1470 does not (as stated by the sources).
- The WHITE 1470 is available with four-wheel drive; the Renault 80-12 SP is two-wheel drive (as stated by the sources).
- The Renault 80-12 SP is newer: production began 13 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.
- 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.
