Three new compact excavators, first revealed by HD Hyundai Construction Equipment North America at CONEXPO 2023, are now available in North America. The Hyundai HX35AZ, HX40A, and HX48AZ all feature low-emission, Tier 4 Final engines.

The HX35AZ is powered by a Kubota diesel engine with a net power rating of 24.8 hp, while the HX40A and HX40AZ feature Yanmar engines rated at 37.4 hp.

The HX35AZ has an operating weight of 8,300 pounds (3,765 kg), dig depth of 9 feet 8 inches (2.95 m), and bucket breakout force of 7,081 pounds (3,212 kg). The HX40A has an operating weight of 9,479 pounds (4,300 kg), dig depth of 11 feet 2 inches (3.4 m), and bucket breakout force of 9,846 pounds (4,466 kg). The HX48AZ has an operating weight of 10,912 pounds (4,950 kg), dig depth of 11 feet 5 inches (3.5 m), and bucket breakout force of 8,223 pounds (3,730 kg).

"Productivity-driving features, such as automatic blade float, hydraulic quick coupler, built-in lifting   hook, and guards for boom, arm, and bucket hydraulics come standard on these new machines," described Jeff Pate, Hyundai vice president of compact equipment sales. "These three models build on Hyundai's decades-long history of leadership in compact excavator design, engineering, and manufacturing."

The new Hyundai compact excavator models are covered by the Hyundai standard warranty of three years or 3,000 hours plus a five-year, 10,000-hour structural warranty, with optional Hyundai extended warranties. All three models also come with five years' free use of Hi MATE, Hyundai's proprietary remote management system that allows 24/7 global tracking and monitoring of engine, hydraulics, electrical systems, and other key components to facilitate preventive maintenance and reduce downtime.
