About · Hyundai R245

Overview

The Hyundai R245 is a 24-tonne class hydraulic crawler excavator producing 139 hp and fitted with a 0.52 m³ bucket. It sits in the upper-mid range of the 20-to-30-tonne excavator segment, a size class widely regarded as the workhorse tier of the construction and civil earthmoving market. The R245 is positioned to balance productive output with site mobility, making it a broadly deployable machine across a range of ground conditions and task types.

Typical applications

Where this machine is used

Excavators in the 24-tonne class are routinely deployed on bulk earthmoving, foundation excavation, trench work, road construction, and site preparation assignments. The operating weight and bucket capacity of the R245 suit it to contracts where a larger machine would be disproportionate to the site constraints and a smaller machine would be insufficient for cycle-time requirements. It is also used in secondary roles such as material handling and demolition support when fitted with appropriate attachments.

Used-market inspection

What to check before buying

When evaluating a used R245 or any machine in this weight class, begin with a full undercarriage inspection, as track chains, rollers, and sprockets represent a significant cost centre on 24-tonne excavators and their condition is a primary differentiator between units. Check for hydraulic cylinder seal condition, inspect boom and arm welds for fatigue cracking, and verify that the slew ring moves smoothly without play or unusual noise. Review the service history documentation to confirm that scheduled oil and filter changes have been carried out, and assess the condition of the bucket teeth, pins, and bushings as indicators of how the machine has been used. A machine hours readout should always be cross-referenced against physical wear patterns on wear surfaces, operator controls, and cab fittings to identify inconsistencies. If the unit is equipped with attachments such as a hydraulic breaker, confirm that auxiliary circuit pressure ratings are compatible and that the boom has not been subjected to stress beyond its rated operating envelope.

Current market

Price position

The Hyundai R245 competes directly with the Hitachi ZX225US and the Caterpillar 321 in the 20-to-25-tonne crawler excavator bracket. The Hitachi ZX225US is a short-radius configuration optimised for confined urban sites, which differentiates it from the R245 in terms of tail-swing envelope. The Caterpillar 321 sits at a comparable weight class and is frequently cross-shopped by buyers who prioritise dealer network coverage and parts availability alongside machine performance. Within the R245 market itself, the attributes that move a unit within its price band are accumulated service hours, maintenance history, undercarriage wear, configuration choices such as long-reach or standard boom, the presence of a quick coupler or additional hydraulic lines, and overall mechanical condition. Machines with low hours, documented service records, and well-maintained undercarriage components command stronger positions in the band, while high-hour units or those requiring undercarriage attention sit at the lower end regardless of brand.
