- you want one that has 15kW more power
The DV60 suits groundworks and demolition sites moving muck and aggregate over rough ground, since its swivelling Dual View console lets the operator always face the direction of travel instead of driving in reverse. Its 6 tonne payload sits above a typical mini dumper but below the larger DV90.
