About · Bobcat E27

Overview

The Bobcat E27 is a conventional-tail mini-excavator with an operating weight of 2683 kg and an engine output of 23 hp. Bucket capacity stands at 0.07 m3, placing the machine firmly in the sub-3-tonne compact excavator segment. The model has been in continuous production since 2012, reflecting a stable platform with broad parts availability across European markets.

Typical applications

Where this machine is used

Mini-excavators in this weight class are well suited to confined urban construction sites, landscaping projects, and utility trenching work where access and ground pressure are primary concerns. The compact footprint allows operation in restricted spaces such as residential gardens, narrow passages, and indoor demolition environments. The machine is also routinely deployed on drainage installation, foundation preparation for small structures, and general earthmoving tasks where a larger machine would be impractical.

Used-market inspection

What to check before buying

When inspecting a used E27 or comparable mini-excavator, priority checks should include the condition of undercarriage components such as tracks, rollers, and sprockets, as these represent a significant maintenance cost in this machine class. Hydraulic hoses, cylinder seals, and quick-coupler wear should be assessed carefully, along with any evidence of structural repair to the boom or dipper arm. Service history documentation, oil sample records, and the condition of the cab and controls provide useful indicators of how the machine has been maintained. A test cycle of all functions under load is advisable before purchase.

Current market

Price position

On the European used market, the E27 trades at an average of EUR 27000, with a typical price range of EUR 26400 to EUR 27600, indicating a relatively tight spread and consistent demand for the model. Direct competitors in the same weight bracket include the Komatsu PC26 and the Volvo EC27, and buyers should evaluate comparative availability and local dealer support when assessing value between these alternatives.
