White LT-15 vs White LT-16
Verdict: White LT-15 vs White LT-16
The White LT-15 and the White LT-16 are both lawn tractors — here is how they stack up on the figures that matter. White LT-16 leads on rated power with 16 hp against 15 hp. White LT-15 is the lighter machine (216 kg vs 239 kg), which helps on soft ground and transport, while the heavier model carries more ballast for traction-limited draft work. In short: choose the White LT-16 for outright pulling power, or the White LT-15 if a tighter budget and lighter footprint matter more. Compare the full spec tables below before booking a demo.
