A Cleaner Choice, A Smart Investment

As India embarks on a greener and cleaner future, we are proud to play our role with the introduction of a range of all-electric, zero-exhaust machines, including the Volvo EC55 Electric. Building on 20-years of industry knowledge, our electric solutions are the next step on our sustainability journey, meeting new emissions standards and working towards a carbon-neutral future for everyone.

Features and benefits for EC55 Electric

Explore what sets the EC55 Electric apart
50% reduction in energy costs
A move to an electric machine can reduce energy-related costs by more than 50%, thanks to the more cost-effective nature of electricity as a power source compared to fuel.
EC55 Electric

50% Reduction in energy costs

What’s more, the electric motor is around 99% efficient and no energy is used when the machine is not moving and working, saving on energy consumption and wear.

30% less maintenance
No engine-related consumables such as engine oil, filters and water separator, means 30% less maintenance is required in our electric machines – dramatically reducing downtime and costs.

30% Less maintenance

The maintenance-free battery is also designed to last the full life expectancy of the machine and is fully recyclable.

New business horizons
Open up new opportunities for your business with a low noise and zero tailpipe emissions machine.

New business horizons

Noise sensitive areas, indoors, low carbon zones, unsociable hours – these are all places an electric machine can work, where a diesel alternative cannot.

Building a more sustainable world
From the jobsite, to the local community, to the planet as a whole – an electric machine is a quieter and cleaner choice for everyone.

Building a more sustainable world

Operators will experience a new level of comfort due to the significant reduction in noise, vibration and heat, as well as the complete absence of exhaust fumes. The immediate torque also results in more responsive hydraulics for further operator comfort and productivity. What’s more, a low noise jobsite supports clear and easy communication for improved teamwork, collaboration and safety on site.
