Bobcat Reveals Autonomous, Electric Articulating Tractor

During this year's CES’ Media Days event, Doosan Bobcat shared several examples of commercialized products, recent concept products and innovation advancements. Among its latest concept updates and introductions, it unveiled the industry’s first autonomous and electric articulating tractor—the Bobcat AT450X enabled by Agtonomy.  

The battery-powered AT450X combines Bobcat’s articulating tractor with Agtonomy’s software and embedded-computing technology to support emissions-free and autonomous operation. Commercialization details will be announced at a later date.     

The AT450X is designed to autonomously or remotely carry out critical farm tasks in compact applications, such as vineyards and orchards. Farmers can remotely direct the tractor to execute a wide range of tasks, including mowing, spraying, precision weeding, product and material transport and other labor-intensive activities.
