John Deere Construction Equipment Showcase
JDPS will feature two John Deere machines in its booth. Displaying the John Deere applications will underscore how the same powerful and reliable engine technology OEMs rely on is engineered directly into John Deere equipment.
The 310 X-Tier E-Power Backhoe is built with John Deere and Kreisel battery technology. The prototype backhoe is a 100 percent battery-electric solution that showcases the development process of John Deere by putting customer needs first.
With their input and testing, the machine has evolved to support productivity and offers instant torque and quiet operation, and will be displayed alongside a concept mobile charging solution. Unveiled at bauma 2025, the mobile charger concept demonstrates our focus on developing flexible charging options that can be deployed quickly and easily wherever they are needed.
Also on display will be the diesel-electric 824 X-Tier wheel loader, a large-scale loader powered by the JD9 engine.
