Steyr 955 (a) or ZETOR 6011/6045?
Which should you choose?
On performance, every comparable figure that differs favours the Steyr 955 (a): hydraulic flow. It is also ahead on top speed.
- The Steyr 955 (a) suits loader and hydraulic implement work better on this data: 96% (22.4 L/min / 5.9 gpm) more hydraulic flow.
- The Steyr 955 (a) 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.

| Which may carry more ballast and load? | 4,500 kg (9,921 lb)Traktorenlexikon, “Steyr 955” | — | No figureNo call on maximum permissible mass: no figure on record for the 6011/6045. |
| Which has the wider choice of gears? | 16Traktorenlexikon, “Steyr 955” | 10 to 20Traktorenlexikon, “Zetor 6011” | EvenEven on forward gears (both forward gears, as stated by the source): the figures vary by configuration and the ranges overlap. |
| Which offers a creeper range? | — | — | No figureNo call on a creeper range: not stated for the 955 (a) and the 6011/6045. |

| Which PTO runs independently of the ground drive? | — | — | No figureNo call on PTO independence: not stated for the 955 (a) and the 6011/6045. |
| Which drives on both axles? | 2WD / 4WDTraktorenlexikon, “Steyr 955” | 2WD / 4WDTraktorenlexikon, “Zetor 6011” | EvenEven on drive: every machine is available with four-wheel drive. |
| Which is newer, and what about parts? | 1992–1997 | 1980–1984 | Ahead (a fact, not an advantage)The Steyr 955 (a) is newer: production began 12 years later. We hold no parts-availability data, so there is no call on parts. |
What does this mean in plain words?
- The Steyr 955 (a) has 96% more hydraulic flow (22.4 L/min / 5.9 gpm) than the ZETOR 6011/6045 (both pump flow, as stated by the source).
- The Steyr 955 (a) has 20% more top speed (5.0 km/h / 3.1 mph) than the ZETOR 6011/6045 (both top speed forward, as stated by the source).
- The Steyr 955 (a) is newer: production began 12 years later. We hold no parts-availability data, so there is no call on parts.
- Even on power at the PTO shaft (both power at the PTO, claimed): the difference is under the 10% threshold for claimed figures, too small to call.
- 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 PTO speeds: the same speeds (540, 1000 rpm).
- Even on drive: every machine is available with four-wheel drive.
- 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.
