The Windrose has been out towing containers for Nexus Logistics recently.

You might see us out today with a refrigerated trailer for Goodman Fielder.

RFH’s XC975EV loader at Timberlands KPP is showing quite remarkable runtime achieving 11 hours work on a charge of the 423kWh battery.

XCMG can now offer 19t, 23t and 28t hybrid loaders. The fuel burn is 30% to 70% less than a conventional diesel loader, depending on the application.

The latest waste guarded XC938EV pure electric loader on solid tyres has arrived at our Penrose hub. We will exhibit this loader at the Fieldays before it goes into work for Green Gorilla in Tauranga.

XCMG’s latest 2025 product guide brochure is here. It is a big document so download it to your computer for the best clarity.

XCMG released their fully EV 60t crane at Bauma. The truck is BEV for driving and can be tethered for continuous zero emissions work.

The XCT100G5-HEV 100t hybrid version might be more practical, it can still be tethered when a power supply is available on site.

Also at Bauma the latest XE19U-E excavator.

These 180kWh/180kW charging trailers can now be supplied with 2kW light towers and 360 degree video surveillance of your work site.

Super fast charging is coming quickly with Huawei releasing their 2400A or 1.5MW liquid cooled charger. Energy transfer peaks at 20kWh per minute.

There are two charging guns as well as the liquid cooling connection.
