Volvo Construction Equipment (Volvo CE) and its Indonesian dealer, PT Indotruck Utama (ITU), have introduced the New Generation EC210 Excavator with an eye-catching performance based on the epic Hindu legend of the Mahabharata. The performance incorporated visual themes from the story to represent the new machine’s leading technology, robust structure, reliable components, and productivity.
The Indonesian launch event for the New Generation Volvo EC210 Excavator was centered on the theme of ‘Pandawa’ to celebrate local culture and align the machine’s strength, efficiency, and endurance with the legend of the Pandawa 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 Pandawa brothers overcame challenges through their unique strengths, the New Generation EC210 is built to tackle the toughest job site conditions with precision and power.”
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 returns on investment.
The New Generation EC210 has 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, a rearview camera, and anti-slip plates. Operator comfort is further improved with a ROPS cab and ergonomic controls.
Advanced hydraulics reduce fuel consumption by up to 15% by intelligently regulating engine speed and hydraulic flow, leading to lower operating costs. 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 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 Pandawa event truly brought the spirit of the New Generation EC210 to life.”
