Recently, XCMG's XC968-EV pure electric loader triumphed over strong competitors at Turkey's authoritative construction industry gala—the 2024 Construction Site Star "ŞANTİYENİN YILDIZI 2024" awards—and was honored with the Special Award for Construction Performance.

This honor was presented by Şantiye magazine, the most influential professional media outlet in Turkey's construction sector. The "Construction Site Star of the Year" awards have been successfully held for five editions, with unified judging by thousands of industry readers and top experts, and its results have become an authoritative benchmark for measuring industry innovation and green sustainable development.

Competition in this year's edition was fierce, bringing together the world's leading products and technical solutions. With outstanding operating performance and environmental friendliness, the XCMG XC968-EV pure electric loader stood out from the main competing products and took home the "Şantiye Özel Ödülü" Special Award for Construction Performance.

In the award citation, the judging panel praised: "The XCMG XC968-EV sets a high-quality sustainable development solution for the global engineering equipment sector. It not only delivers outstanding operating efficiency but also minimizes environmental impact—its pure electric power eliminates the use of traditional fossil fuels and achieves truly zero emissions. Even under demanding working conditions, its power output remains strong and stable, even outperforming conventional diesel models."

As one of the earlier pure electric loaders introduced to the Turkish market, the XC968-EV has been battle-tested in the country's most demanding working environments. The first batch of XCMG pure electric loaders deployed has accumulated more than 8,000 hours of operation, serving as the main workhorse in multiple industries including building materials, timber, sand and gravel, stone, ports, and power.

"The XCMG electric machine is very easy to operate and its performance is stunning. It fully complies with EU CE safety standards, making it worry-free and reassuring to use," one Turkish customer said sincerely. "We look forward to introducing larger-tonnage XCMG equipment and participating in more engineering projects."

Behind this user acclaim are tangible efficiency gains: according to estimates, each XCMG XC968-EV can save tens of thousands of dollars in energy costs per year compared with conventional fuel-powered models.

This heavyweight award from Turkey not only reflects the local market's high recognition of XCMG products, but also bears profound witness to the dedication and hard work of the XCMG Turkey team in cultivating overseas markets.

New energy is reshaping the landscape of the construction machinery industry, and XCMG is joining hands with global partners to draw a new blueprint for zero-carbon construction. This is an innovation in technology, and even more a promise from XCMG to take responsibility for the future—
