Volvo to offer electric machine operating experience at Utility Expo

The future is now for electric construction equipment, and Volvo Construction Equipment will showcase the latest advancements in emobility at The Utility Expo with in-person and virtual events — highlighted by the opportunity for attendees to operate the commercially available ECR25 Electric excavator and L25 Electric wheel loader.

Volvo ECR25 Electric Excavator Digging

“We’re excited to get people into the operator seat of our compact electric excavator and wheel loader so they can experience first-hand the zero emissions, low noise and high performance these machines offer,” said Stephen Roy, President of Region North America, Volvo CE. “At the same time, we know that interest in what’s happening goes beyond those who will be at the show, so we have an exciting virtual experience that will bring the Volvo booth to them.”

At-Show Experience

Two ECR25 Electric compact excavators and an L25 Electric compact wheel loader will be at the Volvo booth, K129, at The Utility Expo Sept. 28 to 30 in Louisville. Attendees can book a test drive now on the Volvo show page.

Attendees can also talk with experts from Volvo and Beam Global about the latest advancements in charging technology. Volvo is working with Beam on a solar fast charger as part of the Volvo extended offering with the electric compact machines.

Volvo’s latest concept model will be at the show, offering a future-forward look at automation, hybrid engine and asphalt compaction technologies. Expect more details to be released the week of the show.

In addition, Volvo will also feature its ECR58 short-swing excavator and the DD25 compactor.

Virtual Experience

Those not attending The Utility Expo don’t have to worry about missing out. Volvo will host several exclusive livestreams and videos, including walk-arounds and demonstrations of the ECR25 and L25 electric machines, Q&A sessions with Volvo experts and a panel with customers who have used the electric machines on their jobsites.
