Steyr 1400 a or ZETOR 14145?
Which should you choose?
The data can’t decide this. Power at the PTO shaft cannot be compared: the 1400 a has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft; the 14145 has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft.
- The ZETOR 14145 suits loader and hydraulic implement work better on this data: 13% (5.2 L/min / 1.4 gpm) more hydraulic flow and 11% (487 kg / 1,074 lb) more three-point lift.
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 14145 has 13% more hydraulic flow (5.2 L/min / 1.4 gpm) than the Steyr 1400a (both pump flow, as stated by the source).
- The ZETOR 14145 has 11% more lift (487 kg / 1,074 lb) than the Steyr 1400a (both lift at the hitch ends, as stated by the source).
- The Steyr 1400a is 11% heavier (560 kg / 1,235 lb) than the ZETOR 14145 (both unladen weight, as stated by the source).
- The ZETOR 14145 has 33% more forward gears (4 gears) than the Steyr 1400a (both forward gears, as stated by the source).
- The ZETOR 14145 offers 540 rpm at the PTO, which the Steyr 1400a does not (as stated by the sources).
- The ZETOR 14145 is newer: production began 13 years later. We hold no parts-availability data, so there is no call on parts.
- Even on top speed (both top speed forward, as stated by the source): the figures vary by configuration and the ranges overlap.
- 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 1400 a has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft; the 14145 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, maximum permissible mass and a creeper range.
