History of the Case W20E
Wheel loaders
A wheel loader is a four-wheel-drive machine with a bucket on two arms at the front, used for loading lorries, moving soil and gravel and working stockpiles. Case sells them for construction and earthmoving, and also for farms, dairies and feedlots where large amounts of material have to be moved.
The W-series
The W20E comes from the W-series, the generation of Case wheel loaders before the G-Series of 2016. That renewal brought seven models, numbered from the 521G to the 1121G, and replaced the older names across the range.
The machine in the film
The film shows a W20E working on an earthmoving site in Brazil. The sources used here describe the wheel loader range rather than the W20E itself, so no engine or bucket figures are given.
