Particulars Liebherr L550 Tata Hitachi ZW225 CEV 5
Overview Summary

The Liebherr L550 and Tata Hitachi ZW225 CEV 5 are both high-performance wheel loaders with their own sets of advantages. The Liebherr L550 excels in engine power, bucket capacity, and tipping capabilities, while the Tata Hitachi ZW225 stands out for its higher torque, GPS as standard, and an efficient hydraulic system in addition to being competitively priced.

Liebherr L550

Pros:
  • High engine power of 228 HP enables efficient performance
  • Large bucket capacity of 3.4 m³ increases productivity
  • Higher tipping load and breakout force enhance lifting capabilities
  • Generous fuel tank capacity of 300 L extends operating times
  • Advanced hydrostatic transmission provides smooth power delivery
Cons:
  • Slightly less torque compared to the competitor (890 Nm vs. 1000 Nm)
  • Higher minimum ground clearance may limit applications with tight height restrictions
  • Pricing information not available for direct cost comparison

Tata Hitachi ZW225 CEV 5

Pros:
  • Higher maximum torque of 1000 Nm for powerful digging and loading
  • Features GPS as standard, ensuring better fleet management
  • Equipped with Powershift Transmission for ease of operation
  • Variable displacement axial plunger pump optimizes hydraulic efficiency
  • Competitively priced between ₹ 1.16 - 1.18 Crore
Cons:
  • Lower engine power of 225 HP compared to Liebherr's 228 HP
  • Smaller default bucket capacity impacting volume per cycle
  • Lower fuel tank capacity may require more frequent refueling
  • Dumping height and reach are slightly inferior to Liebherr L550

Pros:
Cons:

Closing Recommendation

The best wheel loader for a user will depend on the specific requirements of their projects. If maximum performance, bucket capacity, and longer operating times are critical, the Liebherr L550 may be the better option. However, if higher torque, price sensitivity, and pre-installed GPS are priorities, the Tata Hitachi ZW225 CEV 5 would be the preferred choice.
