Based on the parent model 621G, the new model offers improved loading performance and delivers class-leading levels of productivity and performance.

The larger 721G, 821G and 921G Evolution models have also been upgraded and now boast increased tipping loads and bucket dump heights, further improving customer productivity. This additional performance has allowed CASE to offer a new range of higher-capacity rehandling buckets on all models from the 651G to the 921G, with curved side edges and a redesigned top guard delivering increased capacities, improved bucket penetration and material retention.

The 651G Evolution and the three larger models feature reinforced front and rear chassis sections to cope with the increased performance. Heavy-duty axles are now fitted as standard, with a choice of differentials on each axle. Customers can choose between a 100% differential lock on the front axle and an open differential on the rear, a 100% differential lock on the front and a limited-slip differential at the rear, or a limited-slip differential in both axles.

Evolution operators benefit from a spacious Level 2 ROPS/FOPS protected cab, with a touchscreen display controlling all machine functions. This includes the ability to set engine speed at a fixed rpm and the possibility of automatic engagement of ride control at a set speed. The G-Series loaders allow the operator to access a digital manual through the monitor. At the same time, the cab features adjustable electrohydraulic control levers, new power modes and configurable buttons on the main console.

An integrated weigh load scale allows the operator to load accurately and record the material moved. A wide range of data sets, including job tickets, customer names, truck registrations, and target load data, are available. This information can be automatically transmitted to the site office via the CASE SiteWatch telematics portal.

CASE G-Series Evolution wheeled loaders are powered by proven EU Stage V FPT Industrial diesel engines. These have a capacity of 4.5 litres on the 521G, 6.7 litres on the 621G to 921G and 8.7 litres on the 1021G and 1121 G. Wastegate turbochargers are used on all models up to the 921G, with variable geometry turbos for the two larger models. All engines use FPT’s proven Hi-eSCR2 after-treatment system, with no requirement for EGR. The machines are compatible with various synthetic and sustainable fuels, including HVO and XTL.

All existing services offered by CASE will cover the new 651 G Evolution, including extended warranty and planned maintenance contracts, regular inspections, fluid analysis, maintenance kits, and telematics.

The new model is equipped with telematics enabled by a 4G SiteConnect Module that can be accessed via the new SiteManager App, available for iOS and Android devices. The platform was built with customers in mind.

SiteConnect enables two-way communication between machines and CASE dealers, who can run remote diagnostics and best advise operators on any issues identified without visiting the site. Algorithm-driven proactive analysis of potential failures and reduced fixing time means more uptime and productivity. If a potential problem is detected, an alert is sent to the CASE dealer with specific recommendations and actions to resolve issues before they become problems. SiteConnect and telematics come as standard with the G-Series Evolution.

As introduced with the G Evolution series, the service intervals extended from 500 to 1000 hours also apply to 651G. It benefits from reduced total maintenance costs available through the CASE Care planned maintenance programme, which offers a variety of duration and application coverages as well as payment options.
