Caterpillar D4 vs Liebherr PR 716
The Liebherr PR 716 is about 15% heavier than the Caterpillar D4 (15,200 vs 13,272 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 Liebherr in your region: over the life of a machine they often matter more than small specification differences.
