JCB recently released a range of advanced models, on its 3CX and 4CX platforms, designed to deliver superior digging and loading performance. The 3CX is the foundation of JCB’s backhoe lineup, offering a balance of power and fuel efficiency. With advanced hydraulics and a strong loader arm, it delivers excellent lift capacity and breakout force. The 74-horsepower JCB EcoMAX engine provides high torque at low rpm, maximizing fuel savings without compromising performance. The six-speed AutoSHIFT transmission ensures smooth and efficient operation, reducing operator fatigue and increasing productivity.
The 3CX Plus builds on the 3CX’s capabilities with an increased 109hp engine delivering 381lb-ft of torque. The extra hp and torque provides a machine with superior roading and loading than the standard 3CX. The new 3CX Pro model features an even more refined powertrain, making it the fastest backhoe in the world with a top speed of 31 mph, cutting travel time between jobsites.
The 4CX Pro is JCB’s most powerful and versatile backhoe. With equal-sized wheels for superior traction, it offers four-wheel steer for exceptional maneuverability in confined spaces. The heavy duty lift cylinders delivers increased lift capacity and breakout force, making it ideal for demanding applications.
Updates across the line include four-wheel drive and an automatic torque lock, improving traction and reducing fuel consumption when roading. High-flow hydraulics system allows operators to run powered attachments efficiently, expanding its versatility across different applications. The Parallel Lift Loader Arms ensure that materials stay level during lifting, improving precision and reducing spillage. All new models have the six-speed transmission for enhanced operator control, while the high-capacity hydraulic pump allows for smooth, efficient operation even under heavy loads. The redesigned cab features a 7-inch display, Bluetooth connectivity, ergonomic joystick controls, and improved visibility through larger mirrors and LED work lights. This ensures that operators stay comfortable and focused throughout their shifts.
