Hyundai to Unveil Its Second Skid Steer at Bauma

Hyundai Construction Equipment is expanding its skid steer loader lineup with the introduction of its second model, the HS80V, set to debut at Bauma 2025 in April. This follows the company's re-entry into the skid steer market at Conexpo 2023.

The HS80V, powered by a Hyundai diesel engine, delivers 66.4 horsepower and joins the existing 70-horsepower HS120V in the lineup. Hyundai also offers a 70-horsepower compact track loader, the HT100V. Weighing 3.2 metric tonne, the HS80V has a rated operating capacity of 1,951 pounds at 50% tipping load and reaches a top speed of 7.3 mph with its single-speed travel motors. Details on its availability in North America remain unconfirmed.

Designed for efficiency, the loader features a vertical-lift path that enables the boom to raise the bucket to full height without material spillage. An Auto Self-Leveling system ensures the bucket or forks remain level during lifting without operator adjustments. The machine also includes a standard flat-faced hydraulic quick coupler for attachment changes from the cab, with an optional 14-pin electrical connector.

Operator comfort and visibility are key aspects of the HS80V’s design. The spacious cab is equipped with heating and air conditioning, while a full-width front window provides a clear view of attachments. A rearview camera activates automatically when reversing, and working lights remain on for 30 seconds after shutdown to assist with safe exits in low-light conditions.

Control is managed through two multi-function joysticks, each with various switches for auxiliary hydraulics and other functions. The right-hand lever operates the boom and bucket, while the left-hand lever handles driving functions. Engine speed can be adjusted using either a rotary dial or a foot pedal, with Hyundai recommending the dial for powered attachments to maintain consistent speed.
