John Deere Adds 85 P-Tier and 510 P-Tier Excavators to Lineup

Ryan Whisner Headshot

The future generation of John Deere excavators is on the horizon.

Following the dissolution of the agreement between Hitachi and John Deere, the upcoming new machines will be owned, designed, and built by John Deere.

In the meantime, the company continues to add technology to its current generation machines, with the latest models due to hit jobsites: the 85 P-Tier and the 510 P-Tier.

Under the tiering system, Deere has dropped the letter at the end of the model's name that signified the machine's generation. In place of that letter is one of three letters meant to identify its performance and technology tier: a G, P, or X-Tier to represent economy models, advanced models, and electric or hybrid diesel-electric technology, respectively.

Enhancements include a 270-degree camera system integrated into the monitor, improved performance, reduced maintenance costs, and reduced fuel consumption.

The two new models are examples of current products that John Deere can quickly move to market.
