Overview Summary

When comparing the Liugong 856H MAX with the Volvo L120H, both wheel loaders offer robust features suited for heavy-duty construction and mining activities. Liugong 856H MAX boasts a slightly more powerful engine and higher payload capacity, while the Volvo L120H offers better versatility in bucket capacity and advanced braking features.

Liugong 856H MAX

Pros:
  • Superior engine power of 225 HP for demanding tasks
  • Significant max torque of 1200 Nm at 1300 rpm
  • Large piston displacement at 9.41 L
  • Higher payload capacity of 5500 kg
  • Higher tipping load capacity, both straight (15877 kg) and full turn (13878 kg)
  • Feature-rich with standard AC cabin and GPS system
Cons:
  • Lower bucket capacity compared to Volvo L120H's maximum
  • Marginally less fuel efficient with a larger engine

Volvo L120H

Pros:
  • Varied bucket capacity options ranging from 2.6 to 9.5 m³
  • Slightly higher top forward speed of 40 km/h
  • Enhanced lifting capabilities tailored for large-scale material handling
  • More advanced braking system with nitrogen charged accumulators and oil-cooled wet disc brakes
  • Load-sensing hydrostatic articulated steering for precision
Cons:
  • Less engine power than Liugong 856H MAX at 255 HP (despite having a higher reported HP, the effective max power is lower at 190 kW)
  • The AC Cabin is optional, not standard

Pros:
Cons:

Closing Recommendation

Choose Liugong 856H MAX for tasks requiring high torque and engine power combined with a heavy payload. Opt for the Volvo L120H for versatile bucket options and enhanced on-site maneuverability. Consider the balance between standard offerings and optional features when making a decision, acknowledging the Liugong's more inclusive base package.
