Tata Hitachi EX 200LC Tunnel
Pros
- Cummins engine is proven and serviceable, offering decent power for medium earthmoving work.
- Generally considered fuel efficient for the class. (Generic EX 200LC comparisons show good fuel economy vs some competitors.)
- Able to perform digging, loading, trenching, and even tunneling tasks effectively in confined spaces.
Tata Hitachi ZX870-5G
Pros
- Uses Isuzu BB‑6WG1XQA‑04 6‑cyl turbocharged engine producing ~483 HP / 360 kW @ 1,800 rpm, which gives strong performance in heavy digging cycles.
- Dual high‑capacity main pumps (~1,024 L/min total) provide robust flow for demanding implement actions and attachments.
- Multiple boom/arm combinations expand working range from trenching to deep/exceeding reach applications.
