“With the launch of Next is Now, we are creating solutions that are unique and innovative with connected technologies,” said Scott Park, CEO of Doosan Bobcat, Inc. Next is happening right now at Bobcat. This philosophy drives the new, fully integrated brand campaign Next is Now officially launched to the public today at the Next is Now media event held in Aurora, Colorado, at the new Bobcat Training Center – a new 44,400 square-foot facility developing and deploying world-class training to certified Bobcat compact equipment dealers.

What does this mean for you? New Products!

Bobcat is launching innovative products into both new and existing markets. The company is not just going to be the global leader in compact construction equipment; the goal is to lead the entire compact equipment industry. That means a wider product line, more frequent product updates and innovative designs and technologies that will force competitors to play catch-up.

“The challenges our customers face change and evolve every day,” says Ballweber. “They depend on equipment that works just has hard, if not harder, than they do. With these new products, we’re offering them a comprehensive lineup from a brand they trust to get the work done.”

R-Series Compact Loaders

The first models of R-Series loaders will be available in early 2020.
