SANY is set to make a significant impact at the CONEXPO-CON/AGG 2026 trade show, taking place at the Las Vegas Convention Center. The company will present its most comprehensive portfolio to date for the North American market, featuring an expansive display of machinery, digital technology and service capabilities. Operating under the theme ‘Together, We Move the Future Forward’, SANY will highlight the convergence of robust performance, intelligent innovation and lasting customer relationships as key drivers for the industry's evolution.

Visitors to Booth F44054 will encounter an impressive lineup of 32 machines and 17 attachments, with the spotlight on 10 newly introduced models engineered specifically for North American requirements. Among these, the SY10U Mini Excavator stands out for its zero tail swing design, providing exceptional manoeuvrability in confined spaces. Its operation is enhanced by a full hydraulic load sensing system, a suspension seat and wide armrests, ensuring a premium operator experience. The larger SY335LC Medium Excavator is powered by a substantial 9L Cummins engine generating 209 kilowatts. This powertrain delivers 204 kN of bucket force and 153 kN of arm force, resulting in digging performance that is both powerful and precise for its class.

In the lifting category, the SCA3300A Lattice Boom Crawler Crane incorporates a smart windshield that automatically adjusts its tint based on sunlight intensity. It also offers an optional auxiliary power unit designed to optimise energy savings and lower emissions. Similarly, the SCA1100TB Telescopic Crawler Crane features an optional APU to reduce fuel consumption and engine wear, while a 360-degree surround view monitoring system enhances safety during lifts. The new generation SW940L Wheel Loader integrates a Cummins B6.7 engine with ZF transmission and drive axles. Its advanced full electronic control system ensures compatibility with mainstream attachments and enables intelligent functions like automatic limit control, one-touch bucket shake, parallel lift, tyre pressure monitoring and smart attachment selection and positioning. The STH5519 Telehandler comes standard with reversing radar and load moment protection. An integrated multifunction joystick is designed to improve operational efficiency by 20 percent, while a stability coefficient exceeding 1.3 promotes safer lifting operations.

Beyond the equipment itself, SANY will demonstrate a suite of intelligent solutions aimed at minimising downtime and maximising productivity. These include the SANY AI Service Assistant, which provides intelligent diagnostics, interactive fault identification and quick parts identification for efficient maintenance. The SANY RootPilot system offers high precision 3D guidance for smarter and faster construction processes. In a compelling live demonstration, SANY will remotely control an excavator located in Huzhou, China, directly from its US showroom, a distance of over 6,500 miles, using AI-assisted technology with one-click digging and loading capabilities. These technological demonstrations will be complemented by a showcase of SANY's comprehensive service capabilities, all designed to ensure equipment operates smoothly and reliably.

Tata Motors, India’s largest commercial vehicle manufacturer, has marked the 21st anniversary of its iconic Tata Ace by launching the all‑new Ace Gold+ XL. This milestone in last‑mile mobility introduces a thoughtfully evolved variant designed for higher payloads and longer body applications. The Ace Gold+ XL extends the legacy that originally reshaped small cargo movement in India while continuing to support a growing and diverse base of entrepreneurs.

To celebrate 21 years of the Chhota Haathi, Tata Motors has also rolled out a nationwide campaign titled Ikkis Saal Bemisaal. This initiative focuses on entrepreneurs who have built their livelihoods around the Ace. Customer‑centric measures include additional benefits of up to INR 21,000 for women entrepreneurs, reinforcing the company’s longstanding commitment to inclusive growth.

Engineered with an eight‑foot load body and a one‑tonne payload capacity, the Ace Gold+ XL enables higher cargo volume per trip to improve owner profitability. The vehicle uses advanced Lean NOx Trap technology, eliminating the need for Diesel Exhaust Fluid and thereby reducing operating complexity and maintenance effort. A 700-cc turbocharged diesel engine delivers 22 PS of power and 55 Nm of torque, offering a lower total cost of ownership, improved uptime, and dependable performance for demanding last‑mile logistics.

Supported by Tata Motors’ comprehensive small commercial vehicle ecosystem, the Ace Gold+ XL joins a portfolio that spans diesel, petrol, CNG, bi‑fuel and electric powertrains for payloads from 750 kilogrammes to two tonnes. The company’s Sampoorna Seva 2.0 lifecycle support programme, along with over 2,500 service and spares outlets and the Star Guru network of trained technicians, ensures assistance at every stage of ownership. Through this latest variant, Tata Motors continues to power entrepreneurial growth and strengthen last‑mile logistics across the country.

Delhi-NCR-based electric commercial vehicle manufacturer Euler Motors has announced its revenue from operations reached INR 4.02 billion, up from INR 1.91 billion in FY2025, supported by a significant acceleration in sales volumes.

The company sold 7,576 electric vehicles in FY2026, up 181 percent YoY, albeit a low-year ago base. The Turbo EV 1000 gained substantial traction with 2,084 units sold, allowing the company to capture a 25.9 percent market share in this category.

In terms of segment-wise performance, the company sold 3,088 units of 3W cargo, 2,728 units of 4W cargo and 1,760 units of 3W passenger vehicles.

Growth was primarily driven by logistics and e-commerce operators focused on vehicle uptime and earnings potential.

For FY2026, total income reached INR 4.33 billion, which includes INR 310 million in non-operating income following a Series D fundraise. EBITDA margin improved from 119 percent in FY2025 to -62.9 percent in FY2026. Net loss for the period was INR 3.08 billion, which marks 61 percentage points reduction in losses as a percentage of revenue. Expenses was reduced to INR 1.84 per rupee of revenue, compared to INR 2.42 in the previous financial year.

During the fiscal, the total costs rose to INR 7.41 billion as the company invested in manufacturing and infrastructure: Material costs came at INR 3.56 billion, tracking the increase in sales volumes. Employee benefits rose by 40 percent to INR 1.04 billion to support headcount additions for aftersales and manufacturing.

Going forward, the company plans to expand its distribution and service network to over 200 touchpoints in FY2027. Euler Motors projects that volumes across its portfolio will grow by at least 40 percent YoY, with an increasing contribution from the 4W cargo EV segment.

Saurav Kumar, Founder & CEO, Euler Motors, said, “FY26 marks our transition from early adoption to early scale, with revenue more than doubling and EBITDA margins improving meaningfully as unit economics strengthen. While absolute losses have increased in line with our investments in scale, the underlying efficiency of the business has improved significantly. In 3W Cargo EV, we have built a strong foundation, with over 10,000 HiLoad EVs sold cumulatively. We are also expanding thoughtfully into the 3W passenger EV segment — focusing on understanding customer needs while shaping a differentiated value proposition. In the 4W cargo EV market, despite being a relatively late entrant, we are now seeing clear product-market fit. The Turbo EV1000 has validated that demand in this segment is real, scalable, and repeatable. Our focus now is to deepen this advantage — by expanding distribution, strengthening service infrastructure, and scaling manufacturing — to build a durable leadership position in India’s emerging electric commercial vehicle market.”
