New Holland Construction is breaking ground into a new market with the launch of its first midi excavator: the E70D midi excavator.
Designed to bridge the gap between mini excavators and larger, more cumbersome machines, the E70D is a solution for a range of applications. From urban construction sites and tight landscaping jobs to agricultural tasks and municipal projects, the E70D delivers power and versatility in a compact package.
“This machine isn’t just about doing the job — it’s about transforming how it's done. With its powerful digging force, hydraulic performance and lift capacity and automotive-style cab design, the E70D is set to redefine expectations and bring a new level of performance and efficiency for operators working in agriculture and construction segments,” said Dan Kakareka, product manager for New Holland Construction North America.
Design and Performance
Weighing in at 16,072 lbs., it strikes a balance between strength and agility. It delivers a dig depth of up to 168.1 in. and a dump height of 180 in. Sporting a monoboom design for maneuverability, the machine allows operators to navigate tight spaces and challenging jobsites. Coupled with a 22.5-gallon fuel tank, the E70D is built for extended operation. The choice between rubber and steel tracks supports the E70D’s adaptability to different working environments, from urban streets to rough field terrains.
This excavator is crafted to perform in confined spaces where larger machines fall short. For small- to medium-sized construction companies, landscapers, municipalities and farmers, the E70D can handle a variety of tasks — from digging and grading to material handling.

Operation
The machine includes LED lights for visibility, a rearview camera for a viewing vantage during operation and cab visibility to provide a clear view of the work area. Backup alarms also come standard, alerting those in the vicinity to the machine's movements. Inside the cab, operators can access adjustable heated seats and a climate control system.
Various attachments are available for different tasks, including buckets, augers, breakers, grapples and mulchers. Heavy counterweights of 1,102 lbs. can be added to the machine for lift performance and stability. Operators can also adjust joystick sensitivity and hydraulic response to match their personal preferences.
Incorporating the latest technology, the E70D models come standard with telematics and a five-year subscription to provide real-time tracking, diagnostics and performance monitoring. This connectivity enables owners and operators to stay informed about the machine's status, schedule maintenance and address issues. The machine also features adjustable controls and an auto-lubrication system, simplifying maintenance and reducing the need for manual intervention.
Meeting current emissions standards, the E70D is powered by a four-cylinder 60.2-hp engine and equipped with a reversible fan to maintain cooling and manage dust.
“It’s an exciting time to be part of the New Holland Construction family as we enter a completely new product category with the E70D midi excavator. Customers and operators are going to find a machine uniquely built for them and their needs,” said Kakareka.
