VALMET Mega 8050 HiTech or ZETOR 11741?

Which should you choose?

The figures split: the VALMET Mega 8050 HiTech is ahead on hydraulic flow and forward gears; the ZETOR 11741 is ahead on maximum permissible mass.

  • The VALMET Mega 8050 HiTech suits loader and hydraulic implement work better on this data: 11% (7.0 L/min / 1.8 gpm) more hydraulic flow.
  • The ZETOR 11741 suits road haulage better on this data: 13% (1,000 kg / 2,205 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 VALMET Mega 8050 HiTech has 11% more hydraulic flow (7.0 L/min / 1.8 gpm) than the ZETOR 11741 (both pump flow, as stated by the source).
  • The ZETOR 11741 has 13% higher maximum permissible mass (1,000 kg / 2,205 lb) than the VALMET Mega 8050 HiTech (both maximum permissible mass, as stated by the source).
  • The VALMET Mega 8050 HiTech has 50% more forward gears (12 gears) than the ZETOR 11741 (both forward gears, as stated by the source).
  • 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 top speed (both top speed forward, as stated by the source): the figures vary by configuration and the ranges overlap.
