Liebherr L 586 XPower vs Volvo L220H

The Liebherr L 586 XPower is about 3% heavier than the Volvo L220H (33,150 vs 32,150 kg), which usually means more stability and lifting capacity but higher transport weight.

The Volvo L220H has about 7% more engine power (279 kW (374 hp) vs 260 kW (349 hp)).

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