The XGC88000 crawler crane is a class of extremely large ultraheavy crawler crane made by XCMG. With a lifting capacity of 3,600[5] to 4,000 tons,[6] a total boom length of 144 meters[3] and a total gross weight of 5,350 tons.[3] The XGC88000 crawler crane became the largest tracked mobile crane in the world,[7][8][9] beating out the previous record holder, the Liebherr LR 13000, when production began in 2013. However, when it comes to absolute size, movability, and strength, the title still goes to the Honghai Crane which runs on rails.

It is also one of the largest ground vehicles in current operation, and – by its official production in 2013 – became the largest self-propelled ground vehicle by gross size, beating out the NASA crawler-transporters.
