Top Prize! SANY's Pure Electric Excavator Receives European Recognition

2026-03-28

Recently, at the annual awards ceremony of DLR (French Association of Distributors, Lessors and Repairers), SANY's SY215E pure electric excavator won the "Best Heavy Equipment Grand Prize" for its outstanding innovative technology and leading environmental performance. This is not only a high recognition of SANY's deep cultivation of the French market and its promotion of electrification solutions, but also signifies that green construction machinery made in China has gained recognition in the high-end European market.

Technology-Driven, Defining a New Standard for Pure Electric Excavators

As SANY's flagship medium-sized electric excavator tailored for the European market, the 21-ton SY215E demonstrates a comprehensive performance superior to traditional diesel models.

Powerful Range and Efficient Recharge: Equipped with a 422kWh cobalt-free lithium iron phosphate battery, it supports 6 to 10 hours of continuous operation under European conditions, ensuring efficient construction in all weather conditions. It features dual-gun DC fast charging technology (CCS2 standard), achieving a full charge in 70 to 90 minutes, significantly reducing recharge time.

Ultimate Control and Operating Comfort: Utilizing a Kawasaki main pump and valve block integrated with SANY's self-developed DOMCS dynamic optimization intelligent control system, it achieves precise electro-hydraulic control. The new C12 digital cockpit boasts a noise level as low as 71 decibels, a 10-inch high-definition touchscreen, and an air-suspended heated seat, significantly reducing operator fatigue.

A Win-Win Situation for Economy and Environmental Protection: Ushering in a New Era of Green Construction

Amid increasingly stringent global emission reduction policies, the SY215E offers customers a highly attractive return on investment.

Significantly Reduced Operating Costs: Compared to traditional diesel excavators, the SY215E saves approximately €21,560 (approximately RMB 180,000) annually in fuel and maintenance costs. Maintenance costs are reduced by approximately 50% due to the electric drive system significantly reducing consumable parts such as filters and oil.

Zero Emissions and Adaptability to Extreme Conditions: Zero exhaust emissions during operation make it particularly suitable for construction scenarios in urban centers, tunnels, indoor environments, and areas with specific environmental requirements. It maintains stable operation even in extreme environments above 4000 meters in altitude, demonstrating exceptional adaptability.

Currently, in France and throughout the European market, the SY215E is rapidly becoming a focal point for green construction, leading the electrification transformation of European construction machinery with the core strength of Chinese manufacturing.
