A new range of 695 Doosan wheeled loaders has been launched for markets in the Middle East and Africa region. Building on the design of the previous Mega range, the new Doosan DL250A, DL300A and DL420A wheeled loaders offer several improvements.

With bucket capacities ranging from 2.5-4.5m3, they are intended to meet a variety of material handling needs from loading and transporting granular material to industrial, mining and quarrying applications. The new DL250A loader is powered by a Doosan Tier 1 diesel engine while the DL300A and DL420A models are driven by Doosan Tier 2 engines, all of which are less sensitive to fuel quality than Tier 3 engines, “while still offering reduced fuel consumption and emissions.”
