10 Hours with the Liugong 913E — First Impressions - MikePhua - 06-16-2025
I just put in about 10 hours on my brand-new Liugong 913E, and here’s my initial take:
- Operation: Overall, the controls feel smooth, the power is decent but nothing impressive, and the speed is on the slower side.
- Modes: I tried out E, P, and F modes, but honestly, the difference between them isn’t very noticeable.
- Fuel Consumption: This is the biggest surprise — it’s really fuel-efficient. I fueled up four drums before starting, plus whatever fuel came in the tank, did around 1,000 cubic meters of earthwork (conservatively estimated), and after 10 hours, the fuel gauge still shows half full. Hard to believe!
- Compared to the old 915D: When my 915D was new, it never went below 9 liters/hour even on light work. The 913E has noticeably lower power, but for light earthmoving on flat ground, it’s actually a perfect match.
