Develon introduces new electric excavators

Develon electric excavator

DEVELON has announced it is launching a new range of electric excavators.

The first model – a DX160WE-7 wheeled digger – will be shown at the TKD Fair later this week at Ratelaar Sint-Oedenrode in the Netherlands.

The move marks a milestone in Develon’s European roadmap for zero-emission machinery.

The manufacturer has collaborated with Netherlands-based ETEC Zero Emission to integrate electric drivetrains into several models. The lineup includes the DX160WE-7 wheeled excavator, and two crawler excavators based on the DX225LC-7 platform. Customers can choose from battery options, including extended range packs that are said to allow for a full day of work without recharging.

With growing interest in low-emission alternatives across Europe, especially in northern markets, Develon explained the new excavators offer a solution that balances ‘environmental performance with practical job site needs’.
