The UMG enterprise "Chelyabinsk Construction and Road Machines" demonstrated a prototype of the 24-ton D25H bulldozer. This was reported by the manufacturer's press service.
In the near future, the machine will undergo factory tests. After that, the bulldozer will begin to be mass-produced.
The D25H belongs to the 15th traction class and is equipped with a 6-cylinder YaMZ 536 diesel engine rated at 176 kW. The machine received a 7-roller bogie with a base width of 3160 mm and a track gauge of 1980 mm.
Unlike previous models, the D25H features higher productivity thanks to a 7.5 m³ blade and a ripper with a variable angle.
Due to its high operating weight, this machine can become the basis for a whole series of modifications, including specialized swamp tractors with increased track gauge and track width.
The D25H model is equipped with a hydrostatic transmission. This reduces operator workload, allowing the machine to turn on the spot thanks to counter-rotation of the tracks.
The electronic instrument panel includes a voice informant that warns about possible errors or malfunctions. All operating information is stored in a "black box".
The bulldozer features a narrow hood for improved visibility and the ability to install tracks of various widths without changing the gauge. Also, to increase the strength of the engine-transmission unit, a longitudinal beam and a V-shaped oil pan are provided.
Serial deliveries of the machine are planned to begin in mid-2026.
