Exhibition at Bauma 2025: Liebherr R 915 Compact G8 crawler excavator

Trade show visitors to Bauma will have the chance to experience Liebherr earthmoving machines in action in the “Test & Drive” area that is just a few kilometres away from the trade show booth. Liebherr is giving its R 915 Compact G8 crawler excavator model its worldwide début there. This new, compact machine will replace the R 914 Compact G6 in the future.

Powerful and compact

With an output of 90 kW / 122 hp and an operating weight of 15 tonnes, the new R 915 Compact G8 model has a slewing radius of just 1.55 mm. With its stage V diesel engine and high digging force, the R 915 Compact G8 is designed especially for use in tight spaces or on city building sites. The diesel engine is more accessible thanks to it being installed longitudinally. The remaining maintenance points can also be reached easily from the ground. The central lubrication system saves time during daily maintenance.

New driver's cab with INTUSI operating concept

The R 915 Compact G8 also features a new driver's cab with a futuristic design, which will become standard in all Liebherr construction and material handling machines in the earthmoving segment in the future. This large, ergonomic work station offers a wide range of convenient equipment and a large storage compartment. It also offers a digital assistance system: The intuitive INTUSI operating concept can be adjusted as required, is intuitive and makes the driver’s work easier. The modern operating environment ensures a special user experience and enables efficient, productive and convenient work.
