R 9600 G8

The R 9600 is the undisputed leader of the 600-tonne class. This latest generation heavy-duty excavator not only has the highest bucket capacity in its class, but also burns 20% less fuel than its predecessor – the R 996B – thanks to the Liebherr Power Efficiency systems— our patented engine and hydraulic management systems. And with a service life of more than 80,000 hours, this innovative mining solution is definitely an onsite partner for the long term. Especially as the modular design of the R 9600 means that it can be upgraded across its long service life to keep up with the changing technology in the mining sector.
