SAME Condor 55 (DT) or ZETOR 5213/5243-Turbo V/P?
Which should you choose?
The data can’t decide this. Power at the PTO shaft cannot be compared: the Condor 55 (DT) has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft; the 5213/5243-Turbo V/P has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft.
- The ZETOR 5213/5243-Turbo V/P suits loader and hydraulic implement work better on this data: 34% (8.2 L/min / 2.2 gpm) more hydraulic flow.
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.
