Low noise meets zero operating emissions: The new electric pavers from Vögele

At bauma 2025, Joseph Vögele AG is presenting the SUPER 1300-5e, the company’s first fully-electric compact paver. Its little brothers, the battery-powered MINI 500e and the MINI 502e pavers with an electrically heated screed, have now also joined the family of machines with zero operating emissions.

Paving with low noise and zero operating emissions

Whether it be official environmental standards, noise abatement regulations or sustainability goals, the demands for environmental compatibility and carbon neutrality on infrastructure projects is a constantly growing challenge for construction companies. In view of this, electrified construction equipment is playing an increasingly important role in the achievement of zero operating emissions in road construction. Vögele, the specialist manufacturer of road pavers, has therefore expanded its range in the E-Power Segment and is presenting not only the MINI 500e and MINI 502e Mini Class pavers at bauma 2025, but is also celebrating the first public appearance of the company’s new, fully-electric, Compact Class paver, the SUPER 1300-5e. All three models feature a battery-electric drive concept and an electrically heated extending screed. As low-noise machines with zero operating emissions, they are ideal for paving in urban settings, in enclosed spaces, or in particularly sensitive areas.

The world première of the SUPER 1300-5e

With the presentation of the SUPER 1300-5e, Vögele is celebrating a double world premiere. It is the first fully-electric Compact Class paver from Vögele, and simultaneously the first electric paver of the Dash 5 generation. In combination with the AB 340 extending screed, it offers pave widths of between 1.8 m and 4.2 m that makes it the ideal choice for small and medium scale road construction projects. The liquid-cooled Li ion battery from Kreisel Electric has a storage capacity of 126 kWh and works with 400 V in the high-voltage range. Depending on the paving method, it provides sufficient reserves of power for a full working day.

High performance meets new technologies

With its high-performance battery, the SUPER 1300-5e achieves comparable drive power and paving performance to its conventionally powered counterparts in the Compact Class. As a Dash 5 paver, it also offers an even higher level of operating comfort, automated functions and shorter set-up times than its Dash 3 predecessor. The new technologies include the ErgoPlus 5 operating concept, new assistance and automatic control systems, additional comfort features and a new lighting system.

Two battery options for MINI 500e and MINI 502e pavers

Vögele is also showing the MINI 500e and MINI 502e battery-electric Mini Class pavers. Both models will be available from June 2025 with a choice of two different battery options: The standard option has a storage capacity of 15 kWh and delivers sufficient power for a full working day. For longer operating times, Vögele offers an alternative, 22 kWh battery option that is good for up to two days of paving without recharging. Both battery options work in the low voltage range with 48 V. In combination with the electrically heated AB 135 Extending Screed, the mini pavers offer pave widths from 0.25 to 1.8 m, which enables construction companies to achieve even the smallest paving jobs with a machine.

Easy charging and standardised battery technology

Both the electric Mini Class pavers and the SUPER 1300-5e can be charged quickly and easily: The mini pavers can be connected to a household socket or a wallbox. Depending on the battery version, the charging process takes around 5 to 7 hours, the easiest way being to connect the SUPER 1300-5e to a wallbox or a charging station. With a charging capacity of 22 kW, charging takes around five hours, while connecting to a rapid charging station can shorten this to just one hour. As the compact pavers utilise the same battery and drive technologies as all other compact e-machines from the Wirtgen Group, construction companies also enjoy the added value of synergy effects resulting from common charging procedures, maintenance & service and spare and wear parts.
