The AR20JE-H hybrid model is based on the existing lithium battery powered pure electric AR20JE/AR65JE, with four wheel drive, but can switch from pure electric to hybrid mode, thanks to a small Kubota or Deutz diesel - depending on region - available to maintain the battery pack charge level, or do a full self-contained recharge at the end of a shift.

The new machine features a dual sigma type riser, topped by a two section boom plus jib, providing a maximum working height of 21.58 metres and a maximum outreach of 12.37 metres at an up & over height of just over 8.1 metres, with an unrestricted platform capacity of 260kg. Maximum platform capacity is 350kg at 11 metres outreach with a three person outdoor rating.
The AR65JE-H is equipped with a 2.44 metre wide by 900mm platform, while the machine has an overall width of 2.5 metres, an overall stowed length of 9.42 metres - or 7.63 metres with jib tucked under - and an overall stowed height of 2.46 metres. Total weight is 9,900kg.
Held between April 23-26th M&T Expo claims to be the largest South American trade show for construction and mining equipment.
