Liugong Pioneers Electric Construction Machinery in China

As the roar of traditional construction equipment gradually gives way to the quiet hum of electric motors, a new era is rapidly approaching. Recent coverage by China Central Television's flagship News Broadcast program highlighted the remarkable growth of China's equipment manufacturing sector, with Liugong's electric loaders and road rollers taking center stage. These advanced machines showcased the innovative capabilities of China's construction machinery industry through their exceptional performance and cutting-edge technology.

On September 18, CCTV's News Broadcast featured an in-depth report titled "China's Equipment Manufacturing Sector Shows Strong Growth in August" . The segment revealed that all eight major equipment manufacturing industries demonstrated steady growth, with value-added output increasing by 8.1% year-on-year among above-scale enterprises. The report particularly emphasized the electric loader sector, dedicating significant airtime to footage of Liugong's electric equipment in operation - a testament to the company's industry leadership.

The report identified explosive growth in electric loader sales as a key indicator of industry transformation. Data shows that from January to August 2025, electric loader sales exceeded 18,000 units - an increase of more than 10,000 units compared to the same period last year. This dramatic surge demonstrates a fundamental restructuring of the loader market, with demand accelerating toward electrification and intelligent solutions.

Xu Niansha, President of the China Machinery Industry Federation, noted: "This year, China's machinery industry has seen accelerated development of new quality productive forces, with continuous enhancement in high-end, intelligent, and green equipment supply capabilities. The positive progress in industrial upgrading has provided solid equipment support for high-quality development across all sectors of the national economy."

As one of the earliest global construction machinery brands to develop comprehensive electric equipment solutions, Liugong initiated its electrification research as far back as 2014. After more than a decade of focused development, the company has emerged as the undisputed leader in electric loaders through technological excellence and strong customer recognition.

Market performance confirms this leadership position. From 2022 to 2024, Liugong maintained the top spot in electric loader sales for three consecutive years. In the first half of 2025, the company's overall loader sales grew by 30% year-on-year, with electric loader sales skyrocketing by more than 260%.

Beyond commercial success, Liugong has contributed significantly to standardizing China's electric construction machinery sector. The company has led the development of 9 national standards and 4 industry standards, providing crucial frameworks for sustainable industry growth.

In May 2025, Liugong launched its T-Series electric loaders, which quickly gained market acceptance through five core advantages: superior total cost of ownership (TCO), enhanced intelligence, greater power, improved comfort, and advanced safety features. This product line has established new industry benchmarks for electric construction equipment.

Looking ahead, Liugong remains committed to innovation-driven development, continuing to advance technological breakthroughs and product upgrades. The company aims to provide increasingly efficient, environmentally friendly, and intelligent construction machinery solutions while actively participating in industry standard development. As China's construction machinery sector accelerates its green transformation, Liugong is positioned to maintain its leadership role in shaping the industry's sustainable future.
