Its new range showcased is packed with 'Intelli' technologies – Intelli-Control, Intelli-Compaction and Intelli-Load. Said Vipin Sondhi, MD and CEO, JCB India Limited, "Digital Technology is impacting our lives in more ways than we could have imagined. At JCB, we have pioneered the integration of Digital Technology in Construction Equipment. The new 'Intelli'gent technology will further improve productivity, reliability and efficiency of our machines such that our customers benefit through enhanced profitability."

The company launched three new excavators: JCB140 Xtra, JCB205 Xtra and JCB215 Xtra with Intelli-control and a new Wheeled Loader, the JCB 432ZX Plus.The Intelli-Control introduced in the JCB140LC Xtra, the JCB205 Xtra and the JCB215 Xtra Excavators has new features such as a 7-inch Colour Camera ready LCD screen, Dial Type Throttle, Three power modes – Eco, Power and Power+ and One Touch Auto Idle. It also gives information on the amount of fuel in the tank along with service reminders.

The JCB 116 Soil Compactor is a first in the industry to have Intelli-Compaction integrated with Livelink.
