The R 956 features a 6-cylinder diesel engine with common rail fuel injection. The output of this Liebherr diesel engine is 326 HP / 240 kW. Among the features enabling this engine to comply with Tier 4i / stage IIIB emissions standards are an external exhaust gas recirculation system and a diesel particulate filter with active regeneration.

A wide selection of factory equipment options is available for the R 956. These include different lengths of gooseneck booms as well as two-piece booms and different front-shovel attachments. The R 956 shown at Conexpo Con/Agg 2014 is the current top-selling version of this model equipped with the 24’11” (7.6 m) gooseneck boom, a 9’6” (2.9 m) stick and an HD undercarriage. The matching 3.6 yd³ (2.8 m³) backhoe bucket, also in the HD wear category, has the new Liebherr tooth system. With its innovative tooth patterns matched to various types of soil, this system provides improved penetration and increased efficiency.
