Bobcat has announced that it will launch a new two tonne electric mini-excavator at Bauma 2022 in Munich, making it the latest in Bobcat’s growing line of zero emission compact equipment products.
The new addition to the electric range will be presented at the company’s stand at the start of the fair on Monday 24th October 2022.
Alongside, the company is also presenting a number of the latest Bobcat innovations and concepts including the world’s first all-electric compact track loader and other products aimed at increasing productivity, autonomous operation and gamification of construction job sites.
Speaking on the announcement Robert Husar, Mini-Excavator Product Line Director, Doosan Bobcat EMEA, said: “We launched the E10e, our first battery-powered product and the world’s first one tonne electric mini-excavator, at Bauma 2019. Like the E10e, our new two-tonner that we are showing at Bauma 2022 was also developed at the Innovation Centre on the Bobcat campus in Dobris in the Czech Republic and we aim to continue the same success with our growing electric line-up.”
The Bobcat T7X, the first all-electric compact track loader is expected to be another big draw for visitors to the event with the zero emissions machine offering more power than any diesel-fuelled track loader that has ever come before it, company said.
Vijay Nerva, Head of Innovation at Doosan Bobcat EMEA, added: “Our electric machines being shown at Bauma are all part of Bobcat’s journey in further expanding our portfolio in alternative power sources. In essence, all the components in the power trains of these products are made to measure and we have adjusted the processes with our suppliers so that we can increase the production volumes when needed.”
