Tata Hitachi EX 70 Super Plus
Pros
- Good power for size: 55 HP is respectable for a 7‑ton class — strong for medium earthmoving.
- Decent boom height & reach: ~7.5 m cutting height gives flexibility in loading trucks/stockpiles
- Relatively simple to operate & maintain: Tata Hitachi’s wide dealer network in India
JCB NXT 215LC
Pros
- Strong engine & digging performance – Powered by a Cummins 140 HP engine with good torque (~571 Nm), giving solid power for medium-duty earthmoving and general construction tasks.
- Robust build & stability – With an operating weight ~21,500 kg, a wide track gauge, and a large undercarriage, it offers better stability on various ground conditions compared to lighter competitors.
- Good digging force – High bucket digging force (~131.9 kN) helps in tougher digging applications and load handling
