Bobcat E26 vs Komatsu PC26MR-5

The Komatsu PC26MR-5 is about 4% heavier than the Bobcat E26 (2,700 vs 2,600 kg), which usually means more stability and lifting capacity but higher transport weight.

Beyond the numbers, compare local dealer support, parts availability and resale value for Bobcat and Komatsu in your region: over the life of a machine they often matter more than small specification differences.
