Bobcat E35 and E38: excavator

History and service record of E35 and E38

Renamed lineup. Equipment World reported that when Bobcat revised the model names of three compact excavators, the 25-horsepower E35 kept its name while a 33-horsepower model's name changed, and with the new E40 the 3- to 5-metric-ton lineup became the E32, E35, E38, E40, E48 and E55. Bobcat model names change on 3 compact excavators, Equipment World.
Why Bobcat renumbered. A trade-press headline on the change says Bobcat's revised model numbers better reflect size and performance; with the launch of the E40 the 3- to 5-ton compact excavator lineup became the E32, E35, E38, E40, E48 and E55. Bobcat's revised model numbers better reflect size and performance, ACP Pubs.
Long arm option. Equipment World noted that long arm options for both the E35 and E38 add to their operating weights. Bobcat model names change on 3 compact excavators, Equipment World.
Buyer comparison. A Heavy Equipment Forums poster who found a good deal on an E35 asked how it compares with the Kubota U35 and the Takeuchi TB138FR, saying the only dealers nearby were Bobcat, Kubota, Komatsu and Cat. Thoughts on Bobcat E35, Heavy Equipment Forums.
