Best 35–40 ton excavator under €180k right now?
Need a solid 35–40 ton machine for deep foundation works. Budget max €180k new. Tired of overpaying for European brands that break anyway. What are people actually buying in 2025 that doesn’t fall apart after 5000 hours?

We have a 23-ton full-electric running 8 months in a metro extension, 80 m cable reel. No exhaust, no heat, noise level dropped dramatically – crew loves it. Digging power is the same as diesel version, just silent. Supplier handled all the cable management and transformer. Here’s their electro section https://ants-sany.com/en/ Saved a fortune on ventilation fans alone, plus night tariff charging is ridiculous cheap. For confined spaces it’s a no-brainer now.
