Overview Summary

Comparing the XCMG ZL55GV with the ZL48GV presents a decision between higher operational capabilities and efficiency versus cost effectiveness and terrain versatility. The ZL55GV shines with its higher payload capacity, greater bucket capacity, and higher top speed, making it suitable for heavy-duty tasks. In contrast, the ZL48GV stands out for its better ground clearance and lower price point, suggesting suitability for projects where cost and terrain are of greater concern.

XCMG ZL55GV Wheel Loader

Pros:
  • Higher payload capacity at 5500 kg
  • Greater bucket capacity range of 3 - 5.5 m³
  • More powerful with a maximum torque of 1000 Nm
  • Better top forward speed of 40 km/h
  • Larger fuel tank at 300 L for extended operation
  • Increased turning agility with a smaller turning radius over tyres
Cons:
  • Slightly higher price range of ₹ 78-80 Lakhs
  • Less ground clearance at 400 mm which may affect performance on uneven terrain

XCMG ZL48GV Wheel Loader

Pros:
  • More cost-effective with a price range of ₹ 72-74 Lakhs
  • Higher ground clearance of 520 mm better suited for rough surfaces
  • Features dual-pump full hydraulic load-sensing system
Cons:
  • Lower payload capacity at 5000 kg
  • Slightly reduced forward speed of 38 km/h
  • Smaller fuel tank at 129 L which may require more frequent refueling
  • Larger turning radius over tyres, potentially reducing maneuverability in tight spaces

Pros:
Cons:

Closing Recommendation

If your priorities are maximum capacity, power, and speed for heavy-duty tasks and extended operations, the XCMG ZL55GV Wheel Loader would be the better choice. However, if operating in more challenging terrain and looking to optimize costs is more critical for your projects, the XCMG ZL48GV Wheel Loader could be the more appropriate fit.
