OverviewThe L90 Electric Volvo wheel loader is a 15-ton-class electric machine with a 4.5 tonne rated load, designed to reduce operating costs, lower noise and eliminate tailpipe emissions. With a 180 kWh installed battery (153 kWh usable) and DC fast-charging capability, it suits indoor work and urban sites while remaining versatile across rehandling, forestry, agriculture, quarries and waste applications.
Highlights- Zero tailpipe emissions – suitable for indoor and low-emission zones
- Rated load: 4.5 tonnes; machine class: ~15 tonnes
- Installed battery capacity: 180 kWh; usable capacity: 153 kWh
- DC fast charging up to 120 kW (20%→80% in ~55 minutes)
- Indicative runtime: 4–6 hours (application dependent)
- Reduced running and maintenance demand vs diesel driveline (typical savings)
Key product features- Electric driveline with dedicated motors for propulsion and hydraulics providing instant torque and smooth response
- Thermal management and battery conditioning (Ready to Run option) to pre-heat/cool batteries and cab for optimal performance
- Energy recovery (regeneration) during deceleration to extend runtime and reduce brake wear
- Torque Parallel (TP) linkage for load stability, high breakout and lifting forces and improved visibility
- Wide range of Volvo attachments (buckets, forks, grapples, material-handling arms, sweepers) for multi-application use
- Volvo Co‑Pilot / Load Assist and My Equipment connectivity options to monitor battery status, hours and machine data
- Service-friendly design: ground-level access, swing-out radiators and electronic engine cover
