LiuGong Launches Battery-Electric Equipment in North America

LiuGong North America, Katy, Texas, announced July 14 the commercial availability of its battery-electric construction and material handling portfolio, bringing to North America a proven electric platform supported by more than 60,000 battery-electric machines operating globally and validated through millions of operating hours in real-world applications. One LiuGong battery-electric wheel loader has surpassed 20,000 operating hours in continuous production service—roughly the equivalent of a decade or more of operation for many wheel loaders. Those hours were accumulated on an active job site rather than under controlled testing conditions.

LiuGong’s initial North American battery-electric portfolio includes the 856HE Battery-Electric Wheel Loader, 820TE Battery-Electric Loader, 924FE Battery-Electric Excavator, and LRSE4531E Fully Electric 45-Ton Reach Stacker, along with a growing range of battery-electric forklifts, warehouse equipment, and material handling solutions. This initial lineup marks the beginning of a broader North American rollout, with additional battery-electric products expected throughout 2027 as LiuGong continues expanding and validating its electric equipment portfolio for the region.
