The Volvo G-Series L90Gz loader with Z-bar linkage is now available in India with a BS-III certified engine, offering high torque at low rpm to ensure low fuel consumption. The wheel loader features maximum power of 175hp at 1700 rpm, maximum breakout force of 168.7 kN, max. static tipping load of 10,380 kg at full turn, and is available with buckets ranging from 2.4 m³ to 4.5 m³. The powerful Volvo engine is part of the machine’s ideally-matched all-Volvo powertrain, designed to work in perfect harmony for optimized performance.

Volvo’s unique Eco-pedal also helps to guarantee fuel consumption is kept to a minimum, applying mechanical push-back force when engine rpm is about to exceed the economic operating range.

Volvo CE’s double drum compactors feature independent dual-frequency and multi-amplitude functionality which makes them more versatile.

Furthermore, the rotating console plus the in-built automatic reversing of eccentrics means productivity is increased and the completion time is shortened. In addition, the powerful KOEL 105 HP engine delivers stronger performance and the robust design of the machine means it will work harder for longer time and giving owners a better return on their investment.#

The DD100 B features a rolling width of 1676 mm, vibration frequency of 42/31 hz and operating weight with heavy duty sun shade of 10,025 kg. Alongside the two new models, Volvo CE showcased a range of machinery from across its product lines including the EC200D excavator, EC250D crawler excavator, SD110BA soil compactor, P5320B paver and HB38 hydraulic breaker attachment.
