A telescopic handler, six wheel loaders, and a fully electric loader. With an eye on 2026, Weidemann has certainly not held back on new developments, effectively expanding all its most important product lines
There was a fresh atmosphere at the Weidemann stand, a sentiment fuelled by the large number of new products the German manufacturer unveiled for the coming year.
The most significant is undoubtedly the new T6025 telescopic handler, which joins the already well-known T4512, T7035, T7042, and T9535, completing a product line now capable of offering lifting capacities from 1.2 to 4.2 tonnes, with a maximum lifting height—measured at the boom’s articulation point—of nearly ten metres.
The newcomer, presented at the show in a black livery, is powered by a four-cylinder Perkins engine delivering up to 75 horsepower.
It shares with the higher-performance models all the most advanced technical solutions developed by the company to facilitate work, starting with the electronically controlled traction system and the “VLS” assisted boom system, designed for controlled vertical lifting and lowering movements. The cab offers similar comfort and ergonomics standards as the rest of the range, including the ability to manage key work functions using a convenient joystick.
This joystick will also be available on the new articulated wheel loaders of the 60 series, offered in the 20, 30, and 40 versions, all available with either a standard or a telescopic boom. In total, six loaders with operating weights between four and six and a half tonnes, and telescopic boom dump heights ranging from roughly four to five metres. Power outputs—provided by three- or four-cylinder Rehlko engines—range from 57 to 75 horsepower, all compliant with Stage V emissions standards.
Rounding off Weidemann’s 2026 innovations is the Hoftrac 1290e electric agricultural loader, equipped with two separate units—one for traction and one for work—rated at 6.5 kW and 8.5 kW respectively. Powered by a 48-volt battery pack with capacities of 14, 19, or 23 kWh depending on the customer’s choice, it delivers the same lifting capacities and heights as the conventionally powered Hoftrac 1290, but with zero emissions.
Operating autonomy ranges from three to six hours, with charging times from 20% to 80% of battery capacity between two and three hours using the onboard 3 kW charger—times that can be significantly reduced by using higher-power charging stations or wall boxes.
