Our new V-Drive continuous transmission
Bobcat Telehandlers feature a new V-Drive continuous transmission with electronic regulation and dynamic drive mode that delivers smooth power quickly, when you need it, with high wheel torque for digging and pushing. Our V-Drive transmission simply eliminates the need for manual gear shift. Operation is safe and easy, with many additional features to help you get the job done quickly and efficiently: 2 speed ranges with shift-on-the-fly, auto-shift functionality during heavy load conditions, speed management system (SMS), dynamic braking, and an inching pedal. This V-Drive telehandler also provides Maximum Speed Limiter to limit the machine maximum speed, Stop & Start feature, Eco-Ride mode to maximize fuel efficiency and Cruise Control to maintain speed without throttle pedal input.
High Flow technology
Bobcat HF (High Flow) technology gives you best-in-class boom cycle times and the extra power you need to get the most demanding jobs done. You can raise productivity even with low engine rpm: the Load Sensing pump supplies 190 l/min at 250 bars (150 l/min for the auxiliary line). When all hydraulic functions are used simultaneously, the Quick-start and flow-sharing systems supply the full oil output immediately for optimum productivity.
Work anywhere
With Bobcat’s fully glazed panoramic cab, compact size, and smooth maneuverability, getting more done—even in tight spaces—has never been easier. The V-Drive ensures optimal traction on any terrain while leaving a compact footprint behind. The Stop & Start feature lets the machine run only when needed, helping you save fuel, reduce emissions, and increase resale value. Plus, if you need to step away for a moment, the machine’s Automatic Restart gets you back to work instantly—simply touch the throttle pedal or move the joystick, and pick up right where you left off.
All Bobcat V-Drive Telehandlers feature 4 steering modes (2WS, 4WS, CRAB, and Semi-Crab) with semi-automatic wheel realignment, while manual mode remains available.
European tractor homologation
Fully compliant with European tractor homologation, this model can travel on the road at up to 40 km/h, tow a trailer (up to 19 tons) with a braking system, and support a vehicle registration plate.
Heavy duty axles
For durability when working on the most intensive jobs, your Bobcat telehandler is equipped with heavy-duty axles from Dana-Spicer, with limited slip differential in the front. These heavy-duty axles also feature: central differential gear, service brakes in oil bath, 3 planetary gears in hubs, 1 steering cylinder protected in upper position, and position sensor to re-align wheels when changing the steering mode.
Turbo-charged Bobcat D34 engine
The Bobcat engine delivers 135 hp and meets Stage V regulations with an emissions-reduction package (SCR + DOC + DPF), without the need of an EGR valve. Its maximum 500 Nm torque is reached at 1400 rpm thanks to top-class electronic fuel injection, High Pressure Common Rail (HPCR) technology, and turbo-charged air management. Its compact design allows optimized integration, resulting in excellent accessibility and visibility on the right-hand side of the cab.
HVO Ready
TL38.70HF Agricultural Telehandler is compatible with HVO Biofuel. HVO biofuel serves as a cleaner, greener alternative to conventional diesel, offering enhanced performance and environmental benefits.

Smarter and faster
To fully exploit the high productivity of Bobcat telehandlers, quickly shifting from Smooth Drive to Dynamic Drive allows you to increase the speed of all gear shifting and the machine’s acceleration and deceleration. Additionally, the Flex Control uses the hand throttle to bring a new dimension to driving by managing the forward speed independently from the engine speed. You achieve a whole new level of efficiency and precision! Make your work easier and boost your productivity with the intelligent Job Manager functionality, which enables you to save and recall custom settings for a variety of attachments or applications.
Unrivalled range of vision
The patented Bobcat asymmetric cab design, with high-resistance full-glass enclosure, gives you a spacious work environment and an unbeatable 360° range of visibility. The concept uses a 5-pillar cab design, leaving the right-rear corner free of blocking structures while still offering maximum protection as well as ROPS/FOPS.
All-in-one joystick
Bobcat offers you a genuine joystick with smooth and precise boom controls and machine speed and direction. In the smart version, you get 2 additional functions: bucket shaking and boom float.
Interactive 7" touch display
You get a 7" touchscreen display (compatible with gloves) with built-in Bluetooth radio and microphone, and phone page. Job Manager functionality allows the operator to save and recall up to 6 custom settings – so that he works quickly with the best machine settings for a variety of attachments. Additionally, anti-theft functionality ensures security, while on-the-fly settings adjustment gives flexibility during operation. The system is rear camera ready (if equipped, the rear-view camera feed is shown automatically when reversing) and includes a diagnostic page.
Intuitive & smooth operation
Designed around the operator, our machines are easy to operate with an intelligent cab layout, color-coded control elements, and an ergonomic all-in-one joystick. Whether you're covering long distances or handling repetitive tasks, our machine's Cruise Control feature ensures comfort and reduces fatigue. Simply set your speed and go! In addition, to make your work absolutely simple and safe, the parking brake is activated automatically.
Boom Suspension System (BSS)
For the operator’s ride comfort when driving fast or on uneven ground, the boom suspension system uses a nitrogen accumulator to absorb shocks significantly and is automatically activated at over 5 km/h.
Automatic fan inverter
The Bobcat fan inverter reverses the air flow without stopping the engine and allows efficient cleaning of radiators and air intake grill. For added convenience in dusty environments, you can select the automatic mode with adjustable cycle times.
Drive stress-free
Whether you're covering long distances or tackling repetitive tasks, our machine's Cruise Control feature keeps you comfortable and reduces fatigue along the way. Simply set your speed and go!
Cut the noise
Enjoy a quieter, more comfortable workday with the V-Drive transmission, designed for smoother operation. With a 60% reduction in vibrations and the elimination of the transmission’s whistle sound, it cuts noise both inside and outside the cabin. And paired with features like the Stop & Start function, you’ll get the job done with less disturbance!
Premium workspace
Enjoy the all-new, spacious cab with numerous comfort features, including a seat with dynamic suspension, an integrated joystick, and heated/cooled storage compartments. Plus, experience a V-Drive transmission with reduced noise and enhanced driving comfort, keeping you relaxed, comfortable, and in control on every job.
Uptime Protection
5
Everyday toughness
A machine you can depend on all day, every day—with a robust boom, extra shielding of all key components, and our trademark reinforced box-welded frame. You can rest easy knowing that your machine, load, and everyone around are safe and sound. Plus, with a 3-year standard warranty, you get lasting peace of mind.
Cyclonic air pre-filter
The built-in cyclonic air pre-filter with automatic dust evacuation helps maximize uptime. The technology reduces filter clogging and ensures efficient engine cooling in dusty environments
Confidence - inspiring stability
Tackle heavy loads with confidence using Bobcat machines, powered by V-Drive transmission. With a well-balanced design, low center of gravity, robust counterweight, and extended wheelbase, they deliver exceptional stability and grip. Whether you're navigating rough terrain or gliding over slippery surfaces, expect smooth, reliable performance every time.
3-Year standard warranty
Bobcat Company develops every machine to the highest standards of quality and durability. That’s why our standard warranty provides 36 months or 3000 operating hours (whichever occurs first) of coverage, extendable up to 5 years or 6000 engine hours.
Electronic Battery Disconnection (EBD)
Because a low battery can lead to downtime, the electronic and automatic disconnection of the battery significantly reduces the chance of low battery issues. When the key switch is turned off, the battery is disconnected simultaneously.
