Leyland 245 vs Leyland 272

Verdict: Leyland 245 vs Leyland 272

The Leyland 245 and the Leyland 272 are both tractors — here is how they stack up on the figures that matter. Leyland 272 leads on rated power with 64 hp against 50 hp. Leyland 272 is the lighter machine (3,402 kg vs 4,670 kg), which helps on soft ground and transport, while the heavier model carries more ballast for traction-limited draft work.
