CASE Rolls Out CEV Stage V-Compliant Construction Equipment in Pune
Pune, July 23, 2025 – CASE Construction Equipment, a flagship brand under CNH Industrial, took a significant leap in sustainable infrastructure today by launching its brand-new range of CEV Stage V‑compliant construction machinery at its Pune dealership. This rollout, executed in partnership with SS Heavy Equipment, represents CASE’s dedicated response to India’s evolving environmental mandates and growing demand for greener, more efficient construction solutions
Why CEV Stage V Matters
India introduced CEV Stage V emission norms into effect on 1 January 2025, marking a major shift in regulatory standards for non-road mobile machinery These norms align with global benchmarks, pressing OEMs to produce cleaner engines that reduce particulate emissions and boost fuel efficiency.
Models Introduced
At Pune, CASE unveiled a suite of upgraded and newly engineered machines:
- Backhoe loaders: The 770NX, 851NX, and the heavy-duty 770NX Magnum have all been upgraded with Stage V‑compliant FPT F28 engines
- Vibratory compactors: These include the enhanced 1107NX model, alongside two all-new additions—the 952NX and 450NX vibratory compactors
Powered by Fiat‑FPT’s F28 engine family, these machines are built to deliver lower emissions, improved fuel efficiency, and robust performance tailored to India’s demanding job-site conditions
Local Manufacturing & Build Quality
Often manufactured for global markets, the Stage V machines are now made locally at CASE’s Pithampur plant in Madhya Pradesh—which already exports to over 100 countries, building one unit every 16 minutes, emphasizing India’s rising role as a CNH global hub The Pune event, attended by CASE India & SAARC MD Shalabh Chaturvedi, APAC VP Emre Karazli, and other leaders, highlighted CASE’s ongoing commitment to local assembly, cost-effective production, and the “Make in India” vision
Customer-Centric Features
Beyond emission compliance, CASE emphasized multiple machine enhancements:
- Operator comfort & ergonomics: Digital instrument clusters, improved visibility, and cabin comfort feature across models
- Safety enhancements: Updated safety systems tailored to Indian work environments were introduced
- Reduced downtime: Simplified maintenance designs, longer service intervals, and robust telematics integration (via the myCASE platform) promise higher uptime and real-time fleet monitoring
- Fuel economy: The FPT engines deliver optimized fuel consumption—stage V standards often bring double gains between fuel efficiency and environmental performance
Regional Focus: Pune & Beyond
While the launch took place in Pune, the strategy extends across Maharashtra’s industrial belt and nearby districts including Latur, Nanded, Osmanabad, Solapur, Kolhapur, Sangli, and Satara CASE’s expanded dealer network and inventory (housing ₹100 crore worth of gear at Pithampur) underpin quick deliveries and region-specific responsiveness
Leadership Insights
- Shalabh Chaturvedi: “Our new Stage V range is not only compliant with the latest CEV norms but is thoughtfully engineered to boost safety, comfort, and productivity. This new range reinforces the trust our customers place in us — yeh hai ‘CASE ka Bharosa’”
- Emre Karazli: “With the rollout of BS (CEV) Stage V‑compliant equipment from our Pithampur facility, we are bringing globally benchmarked, sustainable technologies to India while reinforcing our global supply chain”
Broader Implications
CASE has stood strong in India since 1989, particularly leading the compactor and backhoe loader segments The Stage V rollout strengthens its leadership while helping infrastructure growth align with the national “Viksit Bharat” ambition—balancing productivity with environmental stewardship.
The focus on GoI emission mandates, coupled with operator safety and performance enhancements, places CASE ahead in delivering sustainable construction machinery well suited for upcoming infrastructure megaprojects, including smart cities, highways, metros, and industrial corridors.
Looking Ahead
As India transitions to Stage V norms, OEMs will need to continue innovating—embedding electrification, telematics, and remote diagnostics in future iterations. CASE’s early rollout of compliant, operator-friendly machines is a strategic advantage, placing it ahead in carving the future of sustainable infrastructure across Pune, Maharashtra, and beyond.
