  • Improved handling: by adopting the new-type rear axle, the turning radius has been improved by almost 15% to 80 degrees to help maneuver in tighter spaces. The new steering wheel is 15% smaller and helps reduce fatigue and offers more space for adjustments.
  • Increased operator space: new design increases leg room by 30%. Refined adjustable steering column is more compact and streamlined.
  • Increase efficiency: LED lights are standard for increased efficiency and reducing maintenance. Revised engine cover with stronger material for increased durability and safety, and easier access to the internals by simply pull a button located on the side of the engine hood.
