JCB 100C1
Pros
- It’s designed as one of JCB’s largest compact excavators (~10 t class), balancing power with maneuverability on tight urban and utility jobs.
- Features heavy-duty boom and dipper with internal baffle reinforcement and robot-welded high-tensile steel, improving durability over simple minis.
- New reduced-loss hydraulics put less demand on the engine, improving efficiency and fuel economy.
CAT 320D
Pros
- Proven Cat C6.4 ACERT engine with solid torque and power for mid‑size excavator tasks (earthmoving, trenching, loading).
- 5.7 m boom and ~9+ m digging height help in both shallow and medium depth work.
- Caterpillar’s dealer network is extensive — spare parts availability is usually strong globally.
