Sany STG140C-10 vs XCMG GR1705: Which One to Buy?

Both these motor graders are built for road work and land levelling. The Sany STG140C-10 runs a Cummins engine with a direct drive power shift transmission and hydraulic power steering, and it is the lighter machine of the two. The XCMG GR1705 runs a more powerful Weichai engine with an automatic shifting transmission, which is easier for a new driver to learn, plus a bigger fuel tank for longer working hours.

The transmission is the real gap the numbers do not fully show. A power shift gearbox needs the driver to change gears by hand at the right time, while an automatic transmission shifts on its own, so it suits a less experienced driver better. Think about who will run the machine day to day, and check which brand has service reach near your project.
