John Deere has expanded its G-tier wheel loader options with the release of the 644 G-tier in the United States.
Launched in 2021 in the Canadian market, the 644 G-tier was the first mid-sized wheel loader released in the North American market under John Deere’s Performance Tiering Strategy.
Due to its versatility, the 644 G-tier is a favorite among governments, rental, site development and asphalt industries, Deere says. Customers can customize the machine through a variety of base-level packages.
The current expansion of the G-tier wheel loader lineup includes the new 544-G-tier wheel loader being made available in Canada.
According to John Deere, both the 644 G-tier and 544 G-tier machines provide customers working in a variety of applications with a “no-frills, versatile, and reliable solution.” The company suggests the machines are ideal for rental fleets, agriculture, governmental and snow removal applications.
“Not every customer is looking for the most technology in a machine,” says Luke Gribble, solutions marketing manager, John Deere. “By introducing the 544 G-tier in Canada and expanding the availability of the 644 G-tier into the U.S., we are providing our customers with options to help meet their diverse needs.
He says the G-tier models support customers looking for reliability without the extras they would find in a P-tier or X-tier machine, and that fit their investment levels as well. P-tier models are the standard with higher levels of features. The X-Tier has differentiated drive system, such as the 644 X-tier loader with its diesel-electric drive.
