ACE F 160
Pros
- Compact & easy to handle
- Fuel-efficient engine (~49 HP)
- Good for light to medium lifting
ESCORTS RT 20
Pros
- High lifting capacity: 22 t @ 3 m is strong for a rough‑terrain crane in this class (good for construction and infrastructure).
- Long reach: Up ~21.2 m boom provides good lifting height and reach
- Rough terrain mobility: 4×4 drive + multiple steering modes (2WD, 4WD, crab, etc.) helps manoeuvre in tough ground conditions.
