The W40X Electric Power New Holland compact wheel loader has won a Good Design award at the 2025 awards.
Aimed at users operating in indoor or urban areas, the W40X Electric Power, which is about 65 inches wide, produces zero emissions and low noise levels from an all-electric drive system powered by a 23 kWh battery. This provides 39 kW rated power, with a three- to six-hour work time depending on application.
Operating weight is about 8,598 pounds with a standard bucket of about 1.3 cubic yards. An attachment linkage has been designed specifically for battery electric vehicles, offering the same strength and durability as a standard design, but with reduced weight and a 5% advantage in required working energy, according to the company.
Automated functions, including return-to-dig, return-to-travel and return-to-height, ease boom and bucket control for the operator. Electro-proportional controls can be customized to suit job type.
