• Kubota positions its construction machinery business as one of the growth-driving businesses in its Mid-Term Business Plan 2030. Among global markets, India is a priority region where demand for infrastructure development and construction activities continues to expand.
• A backhoe loader is a versatile construction machine capable of loading and grading with a front bucket while performing excavation work with a rear-mounted backhoe. Equipped with tires, it offers excellent mobility, and due to its versatility in handling a wide range of applications, it is widely used in India, where demand for infrastructure projects such as roads, water supply and sewerage systems, and irrigation facilities is strong. Supported by these infrastructure needs, India is the world's largest market for backhoe loaders.
• The BLX75K combines EKL's expertise in developing and manufacturing backhoe loaders for the Indian market with Kubota's technologies and know-how cultivated through its construction machinery and engine businesses, resulting in improved functionality and quality over previous models. While development was led by EKL, the machine was further refined to meet the specific needs of customers in India. The BLX75K is powered by a Kubota engine, providing excellent fuel efficiency and durability.
• Through the launch of the BLX75K, Kubota aims to meet demand in India and further expand its construction machinery business.
