Caterpillar 305 CR vs Hyundai HX85A
The Hyundai HX85A is about 63% heavier than the Caterpillar 305 CR (8,500 vs 5,200 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 Caterpillar and Hyundai in your region: over the life of a machine they often matter more than small specification differences.
