Model overview

The Volvo EC480 is a 48-tonne class heavy crawler excavator built for quarry work, mass excavation and other demanding, high-production job sites. Volvo CE markets it as the EC480D and, from the current generation, the EC480E, both powered by a Volvo D13 engine paired with an electro-hydraulic control system and ECO mode for reduced fuel consumption. Operating weight runs from around 45.5 to 53.3 tonnes depending on undercarriage, boom, arm and counterweight configuration, with bucket capacity from about 1.55 to 3.3 cubic metres. Buyers researching this model should treat generation (D or E), emissions stage and regional spec sheet as the fields that vary most between listings.

At a glance

Generation, D or ECheck whether the listing is the predecessor EC480D or the current EC480E, since engine, hydraulics and emissions stage differ between them.
Emissions stage and marketConfirm the emissions stage shown on the machine's plate or paperwork, since EU-market EC480E units are Stage V while other regions use Tier 4 Final.
Boom, arm and undercarriage configurationOperating weight, digging depth and reach vary with the specific boom, arm and undercarriage fitted, so compare configuration before comparing specs across listings.
Visible price and POA stockCompare priced listings separately from machines where the seller asks for enquiry before quoting.
Hours and visible conditionUse the live filters and listing cards to compare operating hours and visible condition alongside generation and configuration.
