Why Drive Compact Wheel Loader Electrification?

  • 1. Reduce fuel costs

    Industry data shows that the energy efficiency ratio between diesel and electric loaders is roughly 1:3 - meaing the same workload that requires 1 liter of diesel consumes about 3 kWh of electricity. For example, a 5-ton loader typically burns around 12 liters of diesel per hour, while an electric model performing the same work consumes about 36 kWh. Under normal operating conditions, converting a 5-ton loader from diesel to electric can save operators up to ~ $USD 40,000 in annual fuel costs - depending on local fuel prices.

  • 2. Lower maintenance and service costs

    After electrification, the loader eliminates the engine and traditional drivetrain components, significantly reducing maintenance demands. Routine servicing and part replacements drop by over 60%. Moreover, diesel engines operating long hours at idle or in dusty environments tend to lose stability after around five years. Electrification greatly improves long-term reliability, simplifies maintenance, and reduces lifecycle costs.

  • 3. Save time and increase uptime

    Traditional diesel loaders require frequent refueling during continuous operation, often interrupting workflow. In contrast, electric loaders enable fast charging and high efficiency. Take a 5-ton loader equipped with a 282 kWh LFP battery - it can operate for about 5 hours per charge. With a 240 kW charger, a full charge takes just 1 hour; with a 320 kW charger, charging time drops to under 40 minutes.

1. Fully Electric Wheel Loader – Single-Motor Solution Overview

In this solution, the engine is replaced by an electric motor, while the hydraulic torque converter is retained. Other auxiliary components originally mounted on the engine are reselected and reconfigured accordingly. 

  • Engine
  • Engine intake and exhaust system
  • Air-conditioning compressor
  • Generator
  • Air pump
  • Fan

  • Motor, motor controller, and battery
  • PTC heater
  • Air-conditioning compressor
  • Generator
  • Air pump
  • LV electric fan
  • Brackets, cooling system, and other auxiliary components

The system uses a dual-shaft motor – one side connects to the torque converter and transmission, while the other side drives the air-conditioning compressor, generator, and air pump via a belt pulley. This configuration minimizes system changes and achieves the lowest overall cost, making it an efficient and practical approach to compact wheel loader electrification.

* Note: Solutions shown are for reference only. Final design depends on the model and working conditions.

electric motor for the fully electric compact wheel loader electrification
  1. The motor’s outer transition flange directly connects to the torque converter housing, making it compatible with most 5-ton loader models.
  2. The motor output shaft connects to the original vehicle flywheel via an adapter shaft, which is then linked to the torque converter’s flex plate – maintaining the same interface as the original engine.
  3. The rear output of the motor drives the generator, air-conditioning compressor, and air pump via belt transmission, ensuring normal operation of the vehicle’s low-voltage electrical, air-conditioning, and braking systems.
