Bobcat B760 Earns Contractors’ Top 50 New Product Honor

The Bobcat B760 backhoe loader has been named one of Contractors’ Top 50 New Products for 2025 by Equipment Today, earning recognition as one of the most impactful and innovative machines introduced over the past year. Selected through a combination of reader engagement and editorial evaluation, the award highlights products that offer meaningful improvements in productivity, safety and jobsite performance.

Celebrating Innovation and Jobsite Impact

“The recipients of this year’s Contractors’ Top 50 New Products Award embody innovation, progress and problem-solving,” said Kathy Wells, editor-in-chief of Equipment Today. “These winning products deliver inventive solutions for some of the jobsite’s most challenging conditions while driving greater productivity, safety and value.”

The B760 exemplifies these qualities with its versatile performance and engineering advancements.

Why the B760 Backhoe Loader Stands Out

Designed as a true all-in-one jobsite machine, the B760 delivers industry-leading performance across digging, lifting and material handling tasks. Key highlights include:

• Class-leading digging depth: 18 feet, 5 inches

• Lift capacity: More than 2,200 pounds at full reach

• Backhoe swing: Nearly 180 degrees for faster cycle times and fewer repositioning moves

The B760 is powered by a turbocharged 3.4-liter Bobcat engine that provides strong torque and smooth operation. The engine meets emissions standards without the need for a diesel particulate filter (DPF)—reducing maintenance demands and improving uptime.

A Versatile, Contractor-Focused Machine

With its combination of digging depth, reach, lift performance and efficient power, the B760 is built to take on a wide range of commercial, municipal and residential applications. Contractors benefit from a machine that consolidates capabilities, reduces onsite repositioning, and enhances productivity throughout the workday.

The annual Contractors’ Top 50 list celebrates the products that help contractors work smarter and tackle tough challenges, and the B760’s breakthrough design earns it a place among the industry’s standout solutions for 2025.
