Volvo Construction Equipment and its Indonesian dealer have launched the new generation EC210 excavator based on the epic Hindu legend of Mahabharata. The EC210 is ideal for construction and mining sectors and even for infrastructure development.

 

The performance incorporated visual themes from the story to represent the leading technology, robust structure, reliable components, as well as the productivity of the new machine.

 

The Indonesian launch event for the New Generation Volvo EC210 Excavator was built around the theme of ‘Pandava’ to celebrate local culture and align the strength, efficiency, and endurance of the machine with the legend of the Pandava brothers, who overcame multiple challenges to save a village.

 

Bambang Prijono, President Director of PT Indotruck Utama (ITU) said: "At PT Indotruck Utama, we are confident that the New Generation EC210 is the ideal solution for Indonesia’s diverse industries. With its superior efficiency, durability, and ease of maintenance, this excavator is engineered to meet the evolving demands of our customers, whether in construction, mining, or infrastructure development."

 

"Just as the Pandava brothers overcame challenges through their unique strengths, the New Generation EC210 is built to tackle the toughest job site conditions with precision and power," he observed.

 

New era in excavation

 

The New Generation EC210 excavator is an easy-to-own 20-ton crawler excavator that simplifies operations and maintenance. 

 

The launch event welcomed over 100 customers from various industries to get a detailed look at the machine’s robust design, advanced technology, and ability to offer exceptional return on investment.

 

The New Generation EC210 comes with a high-performance Volvo engine that provides increased power and torque and features 10 work modes with optimised hydraulics for faster cycle times and better productivity. 

 

The heavy-duty design ensures long-term performance in any application, while safety is enhanced with 3-point side access, emergency shutdown, rearview camera, and anti-slip plates. Operator comfort is further improved with a ROPS cab and ergonomic controls.

 

Greater Fuel Savings

 

Advanced hydraulics reduce fuel consumption by up to 15% by intelligently regulating engine speed and hydraulic flow, leading to lower operating costs and the New Generation EC210 is designed for further efficiency with longer service intervals, easy service access, and a fuel shut-off valve to prevent spillage and minimise maintenance costs. 

 

Optional features such as Dig Assist and Volvo attachments like hydraulic breakers also enhance its versatility.

 

Tomas Kuta, President of Region Asia, Volvo CE, said: "The EC210 represents Volvo’s commitment to delivering innovative, high-performance machines that meet the evolving needs of our customers in Indonesia."

 

"By combining cultural heritage with cutting-edge technology, the Pandava event truly brought the spirit of the New Generation EC210 to life," he added.-TradeArabia News Service
