An improved operator experience
As part of the latest Volvo excavator series, the EWR150 and EWR170 include fully redesigned cabs for operator comfort and convenience. Highlights include improved visibility, low noise levels, ergonomic controls, more storage options, wireless phone charging, USB connections, automatic in-cab lights, and an optional air compressor for cleaning.
A new 12.8-inch touchscreen integrated into the right-hand console presents essential information and offers easy control over camera settings, climate control, and more. More seat choices are now available, and redesigned armrests contain fewer switches. The operator’s experience can be further customized with joystick preferences and electronically adjustable heated side mirrors.
An integrated rearview camera and right-side camera improve visibility, as does the optional Volvo Smart View with a high-definition, 360-degree real-time view of the machine’s surroundings. A range of light options improves visibility in low-light conditions, including new LEDs that are seamlessly integrated into the counterweight.
The revamped EWR150 and EWR170 wheeled excavators feature electronically retractable ladders that swing down from a recess in the side of the machines for safe and easy cab access. With this patented technology, the machine cannot swing or move while the ladder is down.
Four conveniently located anchor points — two at the front and two at the back — allow the machines to be easily and securely restrained for safe transport. As with all Volvo CE excavators, these updated models are backed by the Volvo Lifetime Frame and Structure Warranty, which covers the frame, boom, and arm for the entire initial ownership period.
