The JCB 457 could be the best business decision you make this year. This all-new JCB wheeled loading shovel offers quality, efficiency, strength and style with enhanced power, speed and visibility.
The MTU 6R1000 7.7-litre engine delivers 193kW (258hp) of power and 1150Nm of torque whilst meeting Tier 4 / Stage IV emissions without a DPF (Diesel Particulate Filter). The lack of the DPF offers reduced servicing and running costs and improved fuel economy.
The wheeled loading shovel has a CommandPlus cab which is designed with comfort and productivity in mind. With all-round visibility and seat-mounted controls, the operator is in complete control.
With ground level service access and an automatic opening single-piece bonnet, the shovel is easily accessible and serviceable. What’s more, you can save 16% on fuel when compared with the previous model. The use of premium components ensures a long service life.
This wheeled loading shovel has a standard bucket capacity of 3.5m3 and includes a maintenance-free braking system which features full dual circuit hydraulics with multiple oil-immersed discs. The large single-faced cooling package also facilitates quick, easy and safe cleaning.
The machine’s twin variable displacement piston pump hydraulics deliver fast cycle times and excellent multifunctioning capability. You can specify your own loader arm; the Z-bar linkage (ZX) option is ideal for high breakout applications whilst the high torque (HT) version is perfect for parallel lifting and multi attachment work. This wheeled loading shovel offers operators high lift and super high lift options.
With an innovative electronic management system, this shovel offers efficient, productive loader control and diverts maximum power to the loader hydraulics, reducing service brake wear and fuel consumption. The three different axle options offer the operator the ability to work on hard surfaces, soft and muddy terrain and varied conditions.
The new wheeled loading shovel offers superior strength and durability and guarantees starting performance down to -20°C. State-of-the-art manufacturing processes ensure the highest levels of build quality and the engine can cope with sudden, hard load changes when switching between tasks. The loader’s rear end is protected by a solid cast rear counterweight which routes hoses through the articulation joint and protects them from pinch points.
The ROPs approved structure of the new loading shovel offers an enhanced interior with a panoramic windscreen. With seat-mounted controls which move with the seat suspension, the loader is easier to operate than ever before. Two full colour LCD screens operate as menus and one is the monitor for the rear view camera.

- Plenty of low-end torque
