Bobcat expands lineup with launch of six new heavy equipment products
Bobcat Company is expanding its product lineup with new heavy construction equipment. Four new large wheel loaders and two new large excavators will be available at select North American Bobcat dealerships in mid-Q2 2025, the company announced in a news release.
“As a leader in the compact equipment industry, we are always looking to best serve our customers with product enhancements and new solutions to help them accomplish more,” said Brad Claus, Bobcat vice president of construction equipment. “Offering complementary products, such as these heavy construction products, with even greater power and performance capabilities gives current and future Bobcat customers more options to address their toughest job sites.”
Large wheel loaders
New to the Bobcat lineup are the L205, L235, L255 and L285 large wheel loaders. These loaders are purpose-built for big load-and-carry tasks, offering a powerful solution for construction, agriculture, manufacturing and more.
From building infrastructure to moving materials or doing expansive site prep, Bobcat large wheel loaders offer the strength, comfort and reliability needed to tackle the toughest challenges.
Built for high-production lifting, the large wheel loaders’ bucket capacity varies by model: 2.5 cubic yards for the L205, 3 cubic yards for the L235, and 3.5 cubic yards for both the L255 and L285.
All four new large wheel loaders feature three power modes to allow operators to choose between maximizing performance with power mode, handling daily tasks with normal mode or minimizing fuel consumption with economy mode.
All models are powered by a turbo-charged Tier 4 engine, which offers consistent performance at all elevations. The heavy wheel loaders complement Bobcat’s existing lineup of compact wheel loaders including the L65, L85 and L95.
Large excavators
Bobcat is expanding its existing lineup of large excavators with the new E220 and E245. These new excavators deliver the power, performance and precision needed for the biggest job site challenges.
With fast cycle times, impressive digging forces and high lifting capabilities, the new conventional-tail-swing E220 and reduced-tail-swing E245 help operators confidently handle large-scale projects, like commercial and residential construction, roadwork, infrastructure and more.
Bobcat large excavators have the size and weight combination for increased digging performance with the E220 offering a digging depth of 21 feet, 7 inches and the E245 offering 21 feet, 11 inches. Both models have a bucket digging force of 35,464 lbf. Precision is amplified thanks to their fine swing feature, which allows the excavators’ upper structure to come to a smooth, gradual stop and reduce spillage on the job.
Equipped with Tier 4 engines, these excavators meet emissions compliance without needing a diesel particulate filter (DPF). This results in simpler maintenance and eliminates downtime caused by DPF regeneration.
The excavators offer four selectable power modes for operators to set their performance for the demands of the job – whether that is efficient fuel consumption or all-out power for tough digging and heavy lifting:
