We’re pleased to announce the latest additions to our growing fleet - the JCB 145XR. These 14-tonne reduced tailswing excavator represent the next step forward in performance, efficiency and operator experience. Built as part of the X-Series range from JCB, the 145XR is designed to deliver strong performance while reducing fuel consumption. It uses up to 10% less fuel than its predecessor, achieved by lowering engine speed and optimising the hydraulic system. This keeps running costs down without compromising output. A larger bucket cylinder increases bucket tearout force by 13%, giving added strength for tougher digging tasks. In total, we have 10 machines which will be operating across our regions over the next few weeks.
