Electric mini excavator

The 19C-1E mini excavator, JCB’s first fully electric construction machine, is now offered to customers in the United States and Canada.


The 2-ton 19C-1E is ideally suited to construction and excavation applications within enclosed or urban job sites, or noise- and emissions-sensitive environments such as hospitals and schools. It offers the same power as JCB’s diesel-powered 19C excavator yet produces zero exhaust emissions and one-fifth of the noise.

“For decades, JCB has been—and will continue to be—an innovator and global leader in low-emissions, diesel-powered excavators and construction equipment,” says Chris Lucas, product manager for compact excavators at JCB North America. “However, increasing urbanization, environmental sensitivity and safety awareness is driving demand for zero-emissions machines that perform as well as diesel equipment. The 19C-1E shows that JCB is again leading the way; we’re merging more than seventy years of experience building the world’s toughest construction machines with the latest electric technology, to build the machines today’s customers need.”

Powered by three lithium-ion batteries creating 313 Ah (15 kWh) of capacity, the 19C-1E can complete a typical day’s work on a single charge. An optional four-battery pack increases capacity to 417 Ah (20 kWh) and delivers an additional two hours of continuous use. Other features include:

  • 48-volt electric driveline generating peak power up to 27 horsepower.
  • Bosch Rexroth load-sensing hydraulic system for excellent digging performance to a maximum dig depth of 9 feet 3 inches.
  • On-board 110-volt charger for 12-hour recharging; a 230-volt for 8-hour recharge or fast-charge option for two-hour recharge are available.
  • Retractable undercarriage negotiates narrow spaces and doorways.
  • Rugged battery pack housing endures construction applications.
