Good and Bad of AC and DC drive motor?

My company is deciding to purchase a stacker.... a big brand from Europe present one with DC drive motor while another big brand from Asia present another one with AC drive+pump motor.

Which is better DC or AC motor?

Any wise men please support me? :)

Ac is just about maintenance free and concidered better. But you say a company from asia. You need to know the quality of the AC motor and controller used. On a stacker truck, you probably wouldn't benefit much from an AC motor. Hope this is of help. Am sure someone will give you better examples of pro's and con's of both motors.
