- Operational Efficiency: Provides up to eight hours of runtime on a single charge with reduced maintenance and fuel costs.
CASE’s electric-powered construction equipment offers contractors new tools to meet modern jobsite demands while contributing to environmental sustainability. The 580EV electric backhoe loader delivers the same power and capabilities as its diesel counterpart, but with the added benefits of lower operational costs and emissions.
Terry Dolan, Vice President, North America, CASE Construction Equipment, emphasizes the customer-centric approach driving these innovations: “CASE EV offerings are all about unlocking more opportunities for our customers, and we work harder than anyone to give them every tool in the toolbox to succeed on the jobsite.”
The new equipment, designed specifically as electric vehicles, benefits from a thoughtful design process that integrates user feedback and practical enhancements. Brad Stemper, Product Management Lead, North America, CASE, explains, “Designing this machine from day one as a purpose-built EV instead of a retrofit has enabled a slew of practical innovations that will positively change the mindset for teams considering EV equipment.”
As CASE continues to grow its EV portfolio, contractors gain access to more powerful, sustainable options for their projects, ensuring that they can meet the evolving demands of the construction industry with cutting-edge technology.
