In this price range, the mainstream models recommended are used models within 30-40 tons. 20-30 tons used excavators can be purchased for construction machinery produced between 2020-2023. Among the many brands, which brands are worth buying?
Caterpillar series CAT336/330/329/325 models are available with good performance and appearance. The price of 336 series is slightly higher. At present, the price difference between new and old models in Tiedou used excavator market is large. The reference price of old models is: 40.000-65.000 US dollars. Considering Caterpillar's market value retention rate and reputation, the price of new models has been relatively stable at: 70.000-100.000 US dollars. The new entry-level Caterpillar 336 model has a very big difference in appearance and performance. Especially in countries with high environmental protection requirements, this model is highly recommended. Fuel economy has also been greatly upgraded compared with the previous generation.
There are many recommendations for Japanese engineering machinery such as Komatsu, Hitachi, and Kobelco 35-ton models. There is no need to consider the price of the old models. The mid-range and new models are recommended. The prices of these new models sold in Japan and China are relatively stable. You can barely buy a model with slight defects in appearance but excellent performance for $70.000. The market price of old 35-ton equipment fluctuates greatly. In the latest market survey in September 2024. the estimated prices of several old Japanese engineering machinery excavators are: $35.000-60.000. which also means that you can buy a very good excavator for $60.000.
Chinese brands also have a lot of choices and considerations, but considering the brand's sellers and service providers in foreign markets, we only recommend brands such as Sany, which have luxurious configurations. The powertrain and hydraulic assembly are both from first-tier manufacturers Isuzu or Kawasaki series, which are perfectly matched to maximize the performance of the excavator. The current market price reference for old used Sany excavators is: US$40.000-60.000. and the price of new Sany excavators is: US$60.000-90.000. Compared with the above brands, Sany can buy high-quality excavators with a short use time and a recent factory date at the same price.
