The Bobcat E55 is a mini-excavator with an operating weight of 5536 kg and an engine output of 50 hp, placing it in the upper segment of the compact excavator class. It has been in continuous production since 2011, reflecting a stable and well-supported product line. With a bucket capacity of 0.21 m3, the machine is designed to balance digging performance with the site-access advantages typical of the mini-excavator category.
Mini-excavators in the E55 class are well suited to urban construction, utility trenching, and landscaping work where space constraints limit the use of larger equipment. The combination of compact dimensions and a 50 hp power output makes this size class a practical choice for foundation work, drainage installation, and site preparation on restricted plots. Secondary applications commonly include demolition support and material handling tasks in confined environments.
When inspecting a used Bobcat E55, priority checks should cover the condition of the undercarriage, including track wear, roller condition, and frame integrity, as these components are among the highest-wear items in this machine class. The hydraulic system warrants close attention, with particular focus on cylinder seals, hose condition, and any signs of fluid contamination or pressure loss. Boom, arm, and bucket pin wear should be assessed, along with a review of service records to confirm that scheduled maintenance has been carried out. A test cycle of all auxiliary circuits and a cold-start engine check are standard due-diligence steps for any unit in this category.
The Bobcat E55 sits at a European market average of EUR 48900, which represents the current observed price point for this model. Direct competitors in this weight and power segment include the Kubota KX057 and the JCB 8055, both of which target buyers operating in the same compact excavator category. Buyers evaluating the E55 against these alternatives should compare specifications, dealer support networks, and parts availability within their operating region.
