Particulars Escorts TRX 15 ACE 12XW
Overview Summary

Comparing the ACE 12XW and the Escorts TRX 15, the 12XW offers cost efficiency and good maneuverability with a lower lifting capacity and less power. The TRX 15, on the other hand, provides higher lifting capability and power, suitable for heavy-duty tasks, with a more advanced boom system.

ACE 12XW

Pros:
  • Cost-effective with a price range of ₹ 13 - 15 Lakhs
  • Articulated power steering for increased maneuverability
  • Decent lifting height of 12.9 m
Cons:
  • Lower maximum lifting capacity (12 Tonnes versus 15 Tonnes)
  • Less powerful engine (47.5 HP versus 75 HP)
  • 2 Wheel drive compared to 4 Wheel drive of TRX 15

Escorts TRX 15

Pros:
  • Higher lifting capacity of 15 Tonnes suitable for more intense operations
  • More powerful engine with 75 HP for better performance
  • Four-part synchronized boom for greater reach and versatility with a max height of 21.0 m
Cons:
  • Pricier, ranging from ₹ 28 - 33 Lakhs, may be less accessible for budget-restricted operations
  • Heavier operating weight could mean higher transportation and operation costs
  • Larger minimum turning radius, potentially less maneuverable in tight spaces

Pros:
Cons:

Closing Recommendation

If budget and lifting requirements are modest, the ACE 12XW may be the ideal choice. However, for more demanding operations where lift and power are crucial, the Escorts TRX 15 could be the better investment despite the higher price point.
