SAME Atlanta-V (DT) or VALMET 361 D?
Which should you choose?
The data can’t decide this. Power at the PTO shaft cannot be compared: the Atlanta-V (DT) has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft; the 361 D has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft.
- The VALMET 361D suits loader and hydraulic implement work better on this data: 83% (10.0 L/min / 2.6 gpm) more hydraulic flow.
- The VALMET 361D 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 VALMET 361D has 83% more hydraulic flow (10.0 L/min / 2.6 gpm) than the SAME Atlanta-V (DT) (both pump flow, as stated by the source).
- The VALMET 361D is 12% heavier (190 kg / 419 lb) than the SAME Atlanta-V (DT) (both unladen weight, as stated by the source).
- The VALMET 361D has 20% more top speed (5.0 km/h / 3.1 mph) than the SAME Atlanta-V (DT) (both top speed forward, as stated by the source).
- The SAME Atlanta-V (DT) is available with four-wheel drive; the VALMET 361D is two-wheel drive (as stated by the sources).
- The SAME Atlanta-V (DT) is newer: production began 5 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 PTO speeds: the same speeds (540 rpm).
- Not comparable on power at the PTO shaft: the Atlanta-V (DT) has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft; the 361 D 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, three-point lift, maximum permissible mass, a creeper range and PTO independence.
