Hyundai CE to Showcase Innovations at Plantworx 2025

Newark, Nottinghamshire - Hyundai Construction Equipment., a construction equipment manufacturer, is set to introduce three new machines at Plantworx 2025 construction machinery exhibition, held from September 23rd to 25th, 2025, at the Newark Showground, United Kingdom. Visitors to Stand A-32 will get an exclusive first look at the HX360L Next Generation crawler excavator in the UK, along with Hyundai’s debut dozer, the HD130A, and the company’s first battery-electric mini excavator, the HX19e.

The HX360L, driven by Hyundai’s Stage V DX08 engine, headlines the new Next Generation excavators with more power, better fuel efficiency, and lower running costs. Featuring advanced full electro-hydraulic (FEH) controls, it offers faster response and smoother operation. Built on a fresh platform, it includes premium features like heated and cooled leather seats, a 12.8-inch touchscreen, smart digital keys, and single-lever steering. Safety is enhanced with the AI-powered AAVM+ camera system and Radar Detection Warning System linked to an E-Stop. Despite a 23% power increase, the HX360L boosts fuel efficiency by 8% and extends service intervals for lower maintenance needs.

Another highlight is the HX19e, Hyundai’s first battery-powered mini excavator. This 2-tonne machine is uniquely offered with two battery options: a 32kWh battery for around six hours of continuous use and an optional 40kWh pack for up to 10 hours. It supports charging via a Type 2 AC connector, taking 4.8–6 hours to recharge, or rapid DC charging through a DIN 320 connector in as little as 2–2.5 hours. Despite its electric powertrain, the HX19e maintains the same digging force and breakout capabilities as the diesel version and can be transported on a 3.5-tonne trailer.

Breaking into a new segment, Hyundai will also present the HD130A dozer. This mid-weight dozer is equipped with a 117kW (157hp) diesel engine and two-speed hydrostatic transmission, delivering the highest power-to-weight ratio in its class. Available with standard XL tracks or wider LGP tracks, it features a six-way adjustable power-tilt angle blade and a standard 2D Blade Dozing Assist Function to help operators achieve precise grading results.

Also featured at the stand will be the HX25Az mini excavator. Part of Hyundai’s compact A-Series launched in 2024, this 2.6-tonne, zero-tailswing model offers robust digging performance from an 18.5kW (25hp) engine and can also be trailered to site.

With this diverse lineup, Hyundai continues to demonstrate its commitment to innovation, safety, and efficiency in construction equipment.
