Volvo promises electric display
13 March 2019
Volvo Construction Equipment (Volvo CE) will be joined by sister companies Volvo Penta, Volvo Trucks and Volvo Financial Services.
Under the theme of Building Tomorrow, Volvo’s 2,293m2 indoor stand in Hall C6 and 5,870m2 outdoor stand at FM714 will be an interactive performance featuring the complete product and service portfolio.
Bauma 2019 will be the first major industry event following the recent announcement that Volvo CE is to go electric on its Volvo-branded compact excavators and compact wheeled loaders in 2020.
The first two hydraulic-electric machines will be unveiled, followed by a staged market-by-market introduction and ramp up in 2020.
New excavators that will be launched at the show include the 18.1 tonne EC200E, alongside the EC15-EC20E compact excavators.
Demonstrating not only the breadth of Volvo’s excavator line, but also its length will be the new EC750E high-reach demolition excavator.
There will also be launches of the EC300E hydraulic-hybrid excavator and an EC220E that features Volvo Active Control automated boom and bucket movements for a more efficient digging process.
In total, there will be 50 machines on Volvo’s two stands, and they will be grouped into the sub-themes of load, dig, haul, pave, innovation and service.
