The JCB 3DX Xtra and JCB 3DX Plus are both robust backhoe loaders with similar engine specifications. The 3DX Xtra offers greater lift capacity, digging depth, and bucket capacity, while the 3DX Plus comes at a slightly lower price and has a marginally lighter weight.
If the budget is a major concern and the slight differences in specifications do not impact the intended usage, the JCB 3DX Plus would be a budget-friendly choice. However, for applications requiring higher capacity and deeper digging, the JCB 3DX Xtra would be the recommended option despite its higher price.
