About · Hitachi ZX250

Overview

The Hitachi ZX250 is a 25-tonne class hydraulic excavator producing 179 hp and equipped with a 1 m³ bucket capacity. It sits within the mid-to-large crawler excavator segment, offering a balance of digging force and machine mobility suited to demanding civil and construction environments. With an operating weight of 25,260 kg, it occupies a productive position between lighter site excavators and heavy-duty mining-grade machines.

Typical applications

Where this machine is used

Machines in the 25-tonne excavator class are routinely deployed on earthmoving, bulk excavation, foundation work, road construction, and utility trenching projects. The combination of operating weight and bucket capacity makes this class effective for loading articulated dump trucks and handling large volumes of material per cycle. Demolition support and infrastructure groundworks are also common applications for excavators in this weight range.

Used-market inspection

What to check before buying

Prospective buyers should commission a full hydraulic system inspection, checking for seal condition, cylinder wear, and pressure consistency across all functions. Undercarriage assessment is critical on any tracked excavator in this class, with particular attention to track pad wear, roller condition, and sprocket engagement. Engine hours should be verified against service records, and buyers should confirm that scheduled maintenance intervals have been observed throughout the machine's working life. Structural inspection of the boom, dipper arm, and slew ring is advisable, especially on units that have operated in demolition or rock-breaking applications.

Current market

Price position

The European market average for the ZX250 stands at EUR 90,674, reflecting the valuation of well-specified and lower-hours examples. Retail units in active circulation are typically priced in the EUR 39,500 to EUR 69,900 range, depending on age, condition, and configuration. The ZX250 competes directly with the Komatsu PC240 and the Doosan DX255, both of which occupy the same 24-to-26-tonne segment and influence pricing expectations across the European used-equipment market.
