Zero emissions. Unbeatable total cost. Continuous operation.
Tracbel brings to Brazil the first SDLG electric loader, the L956HEV. Performance on par with diesel, operating costs up to 60% lower and zero CO₂ emissions on the job site.
Five SDLG electric machines already operating on Brazilian soil.
Tracbel delivers three wheel loaders (L956HEV, L938HEV, L972HEV) and two excavators (E660HEV, E6225HEV) ready to ship — covering light, medium and heavy applications with state-of-the-art LFP technology. The L972HEV in particular was developed by SDLG specifically for the Brazilian market.
L938HEV × L956HEV × L972HEV — which one fits your operation?
Three electric platforms, three distinct application profiles. The table below confronts the critical technical attributes so your fleet planning team can make the right decision between compact operation, Brazilian standard or heavy-duty for mining.
Three models, three customer profiles.
The L938HEV is the gateway to electric technology. Compact dimensions, faster recharge and lower upfront investment — ideal for fleets that want to pilot electric operation before scaling up.
The L956HEV is the workhorse of SDLG's electric line in Brazil. Proven 5-tonne platform, with a battery robust enough for a full shift and a 60% lower operating cost than the diesel equivalent.
The L972HEV was developed by SDLG specifically for Brazilian mining. A 423 kWh battery delivers up to 10h of run-time, an extended 10,000-hour warranty and resistance to extreme temperatures — ready for uninterrupted operation in severe environments.
L956HEV — 5-tonne Electric Wheel Loader
Built on SDLG's proven 5T platform, the L956HEV combines the stability of traditional loaders with cutting-edge electric technology. Lithium Iron Phosphate (LFP) battery, permanent magnet synchronous motor and intelligent automatic transmission.
Lower total cost. Faster payback.
The purchase price of an electric machine is higher, but the total cost of ownership over its lifetime is significantly lower. Independent studies show consistent savings in three areas.
How much does your fleet save by electrifying with SDLG?
Adjust your fleet's operational parameters and see in real time the annual total cost of each SDLG electric model compared to the equivalent diesel loader. Figures reflect Brazilian usage: industrial energy tariff, S10 diesel and typical operation window.
Every electric hour is diesel not burned.
The same operational parameters from the calculator translate into tons of CO₂ that your fleet avoids emitting every year. Numbers below are the avoided impact of operating the three electric loaders instead of their diesel equivalents.
Four frontiers of environmental and social change.
Where electric delivers the highest return.
6 additional electric models under evaluation for Brazil.
SDLG globally operates an extended family of electric machines. We track the homologation roadmap for 6 additional models that may reach Brazil in the next cycles.
