Bobcat E145 Large Excavator for Sale with Reduced Tail Swing, Digging Power, and Heavy Lifting Performance

The Bobcat E145 large excavator is designed for customers who need the size, power, and capacity to tackle difficult excavation projects while maintaining maneuverability on busy or confined jobsites. Its reduced tail swing design helps operators work confidently around obstacles, walls, roads, structures, and other equipment, while powerful hydraulics and impressive lifting capacity help move materials with control. With a 115-horsepower gross turbocharged Bobcat engine, four power modes, Smart Power Control, one-touch power boost, fast cycle times, 3-meter long arm, and standard camera monitoring, the E145 delivers the productivity needed for heavy digging, lifting, loading, grading, and attachment-driven work.

  • Reduced tail swing maneuverability: The Bobcat E145 delivers large excavator strength with reduced tail swing, helping operators work in tighter jobsites, near walls, around obstacles, and in areas where full-size tail swing machines may be harder to manage.

  • Powerful lifting and digging capacity: The E145 combines maneuverable size, high lifting capability, strong hydraulic power, and powerful breakout forces to help operators dig, lift, pick, place, load, and move materials with confidence.

  • Turbocharged 3.4-liter Bobcat engine: The 115-horsepower gross turbocharged engine is designed for high torque at low rpm, efficient performance, and consistent power in demanding digging and lifting applications.

  • No DPF regeneration: The E145 engine meets Tier 4 emissions requirements without a diesel particulate filter, helping reduce downtime related to DPF regeneration and lower long-term maintenance complexity.

  • Four selectable power modes: Power+, Power, Standard, and Economy modes allow operators to tailor excavator performance for tough digging, truck loading, heavy lifting, routine excavation, grading, or improved fuel efficiency.

  • Standard 360-degree all-around view monitoring: Four strategically mounted cameras create a composite overhead view on the 8-inch touch display, helping improve jobsite awareness, maneuverability, and operator confidence.

  • Fine swing control: Fine swing allows the upper structure to ease into a smooth stop, helping reduce spillage, improve cycle control, and increase operator efficiency during truck loading, trench work, and material placement.

Bobcat E145 Features, Benefits, and Attachment Options

The Bobcat E145 large excavator includes performance, comfort, uptime protection, serviceability, and versatility features designed to support heavy-duty construction, excavation, utility, roadwork, and site preparation projects. From breaking through tough ground and lifting pipe to trenching, backfilling, loading trucks, grading, operating hydraulic attachments, and working around obstacles, the E145 provides the power, visibility, hydraulic control, and durability needed for demanding jobsites.

  • Class-leading hydraulic power: Strong hydraulics deliver reliable power to the workgroup, helping improve digging cycles, breakout force, lifting performance, and productivity in difficult soil or heavy material conditions.

  • One-touch power boost: A power boost button on the right-hand joystick temporarily increases hydraulic power, giving operators extra force when breaking through hard ground or handling tougher excavation conditions.

  • Impressive arm and bucket force: The E145 delivers strong arm and bucket force to support productive trenching, deep digging, loading, backfilling, and heavy excavation work.

  • High slew torque: Impressive slew torque helps provide more power when slewing uphill, backfilling, repositioning material, or working on challenging terrain.

  • 3-meter long arm: The nearly 10-foot arm provides added reach for digging, trenching, loading, grading, and working across a larger area with fewer repositioning moves.

  • Two variable displacement pumps: Dual variable displacement pumps deliver hydraulic power to workgroup functions and multifunction attachments at the same time, supporting smooth operation and improved attachment productivity.

  • Smart Power Control: Smart Power Control matches load to engine rpm, hydraulic pump torque, and engine response in digging work mode to help improve efficiency across power settings.

  • Variable Speed Control: Variable Speed Control helps improve fuel efficiency by reducing engine rpm during lighter workload portions of the dig cycle.

  • Auto idle and auto shift: Auto idle saves fuel and reduces noise when movement stops, while auto shift automatically adjusts travel range based on load for better responsiveness and controllability.

  • X-frame undercarriage: The X-frame undercarriage provides ground clearance and maneuverability on softer ground, while sloped surfaces help shed debris and reduce cleanup time.

  • Optional dozer blade: The available dozer blade improves digging stability, supports leveling uneven surfaces, and helps operators backfill faster and more efficiently.

  • Quick-coupler ready design: The hydraulic pin grabber is quick-coupler ready, helping operators change attachments faster and complete more tasks with one excavator.

  • One-way and two-way auxiliary flow: Selectable auxiliary hydraulic flow supports attachments such as breakers, plate compactors, clamps, tilting buckets, shears, and other tools that expand E145 jobsite versatility.
