Bobcat has expanded its lineup of compact excavators to include the Bobcat E40. Additionally, Bobcat has revised the model numbers for its 3- to 5-ton excavator lineup to align with the industry’s size class.
With the E40, operators get performance and maneuverability with practical features. It is a minimal tail swing excavator, with less than 2 in. of overhang and a standard long arm. The E40 delivers an over-the-blade lift capacity and over-the-side lift capacity for demanding jobs on construction sites.
The E40 serves as a jobsite solution for those who require trailering and maneuverability to complete challenging tasks in confined work areas. The E40 offers performance with simplified option packages.

With the introduction of the new E40, Bobcat has revised select model numbers in its 3-to-5-ton excavators’ size class to better reflect the machines’ size and performance within the industry.
The model number changes are as follows:
- The 33-hp Bobcat E35 has been renamed the Bobcat E38. This zero-tail swing excavator provides for unobstructed rotation while the turbocharged engine and Bobcat hydraulics produce digging, lifting and slewing capabilities. The 25-hp Bobcat E35 will retain its model designation.
- The Bobcat E42 has transitioned to the Bobcat E48. The conventional tail swing E48 is a well-balanced machine, delivering horsepower and controls.
- The Bobcat E50 has been renamed the Bobcat E55. This excavator features a minimal tail swing with less than 1 in. of overhang.
With these changes and the launch of the E40, the Bobcat 3-to-5-ton compact excavator lineup now includes: E32, E35, E38, E40, E48 and E55. Bobcat offers compact and larger excavators ranging from 1-2-ton to 16-18-ton size classes, as well as battery-electric excavator models.
