Particulars XCMG ZL55GV Liebherr L550
Overview Summary

The XCMG ZL55GV and Liebherr L550 are both robust wheel loaders designed for heavy-duty operations with their 4-wheel drive configurations and similar top forward speeds of 40 km/h. The XCMG model offers higher power and torque with a broader bucket capacity range, whereas the Liebherr wheel loader boasts superior engineering with emphasis on stability, durability, and precise control.

XCMG ZL55GV

Pros:
  • Powerful Weichai engine with 230 HP and a high torque of 1000 Nm
  • Large bucket capacity range of 3 - 5.5 m³ suitable for varied material handling
  • 4-wheel drive with both front and rear differential locks for tough terrain
  • High payload capacity of 5500 kg with significant tipping loads
  • Comes standard with GPS and AC Cabin for operator comfort
Cons:
  • Limited information on battery, alternator, and specific hydraulic system details
  • DEF (Diesel Exhaust Fluid) tank information not provided

Liebherr L550

Pros:
  • German-engineering tailored for Indian market emphasizing stability and durability
  • Load-sensing hydraulics with high system pressure of 360 bar for responsive control
  • Modern engine technology with water-cooling, turbocharging, intercooling, and high-pressure injection
  • Higher oscillation angle of rear axle at ±13° for better terrain adaptability
  • Diverse safety and braking features including hydrostatic self-locking and electro-hydraulically actuated brakes
Cons:
  • Slightly less engine power at 228 HP compared to XCMG ZL55GV
  • Bucket capacity fixed at 3.4 m³ which may be limiting for some applications
  • GPS is only optional, which may incur additional cost if needed

Pros:
Cons:

Closing Recommendation

Choosing between the XCMG ZL55GV and the Liebherr L550 should be based on specific operational needs. The XCMG could be preferable for applications requiring greater lifting capabilities and variable bucket sizes, while the Liebherr may suit operations that prioritize durability, precision, and advanced safety features. Both models are equipped with standard features such as AC cabins for operator comfort, but the inclusion or exclusion of GPS as a standard feature could also influence the decision.
