SAME 480 (DT) or ZETOR 8011/8045?
Which should you choose?
The data can’t decide this. Power at the PTO shaft cannot be compared: the 480 (DT) has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft; the 8011/8045 has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft.
- The ZETOR 8011/8045 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 ZETOR 8011/8045 is 45% heavier (1,206 kg / 2,659 lb) than the SAME 480 (DT) (both unladen weight, as stated by the source).
- The ZETOR 8011/8045 has 220% more forward gears (11 gears) than the SAME 480 (DT) (both forward gears, as stated by the source).
- The ZETOR 8011/8045 has 20% more top speed (5.0 km/h / 3.1 mph) than the SAME 480 (DT) (both top speed forward, as stated by the source).
- The ZETOR 8011/8045 is newer: production began 9 years later. We hold no parts-availability data, so there is no call on parts.
- Even on PTO independence: every PTO is independent.
- Even on drive: every machine is available with four-wheel drive.
- Not comparable on power at the PTO shaft: the 480 (DT) has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft; the 8011/8045 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, hydraulic flow, three-point lift, maximum permissible mass, a creeper range and PTO speeds.
