Steyr 370 Kompakt or ZETOR Proxima 7421/7441?
Which should you choose?
The data can’t decide this. Power at the PTO shaft cannot be compared: the 370 Kompakt has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft; the Proxima 7421/7441 has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft.
- The Steyr 370 Kompakt suits loader and hydraulic implement work better on this data: 14% (6.3 L/min / 1.7 gpm) more hydraulic flow.
- The ZETOR Proxima 7421/7441 suits road haulage better on this data: 37% (1,770 kg / 3,902 lb) more maximum permissible mass.
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 Steyr 370 Kompakt has 14% more hydraulic flow (6.3 L/min / 1.7 gpm) than the ZETOR Proxima 7421/7441 (both pump flow, as stated by the source).
- The ZETOR Proxima 7421/7441 has 37% higher maximum permissible mass (1,770 kg / 3,902 lb) than the Steyr 370 Kompakt (both maximum permissible mass, as stated by the source).
- The ZETOR Proxima 7421/7441 offers 1000 rpm at the PTO, which the Steyr 370 Kompakt does not (as stated by the sources).
- Even on weight (both unladen weight, as stated by the source): the difference is under the 10% threshold, too small to call.
- Even on forward gears (both forward gears, as stated by the source): the figures vary by configuration and the ranges overlap.
- Even on top speed (both top speed forward, as stated by the source): the figures vary by configuration and the ranges overlap.
- Even on drive: every machine is available with four-wheel drive.
- Same era: production began within 5 years of each other. We hold no parts-availability data, so there is no call on parts.
- Not comparable on power at the PTO shaft: the 370 Kompakt has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft; the Proxima 7421/7441 has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft.
- Not comparable on three-point lift: the 370 Kompakt: lift at the hitch ends, as stated by the source (Traktorenlexikon, “Steyr 370 Kompakt”); the Proxima 7421/7441: lift at an unstated point, as stated by the source (Traktorenlexikon, “Zetor Proxima 7421/7441”) — not the same quantity, basis and condition.
- No figure on record for every machine, so no call on: fuel efficiency at the shaft, drawbar power, a creeper range and PTO independence.
