The XCMG XE245i LR is a long-reach hydraulic excavator made for deep excavation, dredging, waterfront construction, canal widening, and extended-reach earthmoving projects. It is powered by a Cummins 6BT5.9 turbocharged diesel engine that delivers 141.4 HP. This provides reliable performance over long operating cycles in demanding environments. Weighing around 22,800 kg, the machine maintains stability even during extreme long-reach tasks. With an 8,140 mm long-reach boom and a 6,340 mm extended arm, it achieves a maximum digging reach of 15,430 mm and a maximum digging depth of 11,610 mm, making it ideal for deep riverbank and reservoir dredging. A 0.5 m³ bucket allows for consistent material handling efficiency during extended work cycles. Dual piston pumps ensure smooth and responsive hydraulic control across all functions at any reach position. A 360 L fuel tank and 800 mm wide track shoes support long runtimes and strong stability on soft ground. The standard air-conditioned cabin enhances operator comfort during extended shifts. The XCMG XE245i LR price in India ranges from Rs. 65 to 70 lakh. It is a preferred option for dredging contractors, irrigation project agencies, and deep civil engineering firms working on canal, reservoir, and waterfront excavation projects across India.
