John Deere Unveils G-Tier Compact Wheel Loader Models

MOLINE, Ill. — John Deere is building upon its line-up of compact equipment by expanding its performance tiering strategy with three new models of Compact Wheel Loaders. The new G-tier models, including the new 184 G-tier, and the 204 G-tier and 304 G-tier machines, were designed to include proven capabilities and are ideal for customers in need of a dependable machine to complete everyday tasks. The G-tier Compact Wheel Loader models are also practically equipped, providing proven capabilities with the reliability and ruggedness customers expect from John Deere machines.

"As we learned from launching our performance tiering strategy on our utility loader line-up last year, customer’s needs are unique and they require personalized solutions to meet their diverse set of tasks," said Luke Gribble, Solutions Marketing Manager, John Deere Construction and Forestry Division. "That’s why we chose to expand our performance tiering strategy with the introduction of the G-tier Compact Wheel Loader models. These machines are not only rugged, but they boast simple and intuitive machine controls that are a great fit for operators of all experience levels, while also offering options that promote operator comfort and productivity."

The 184, 204, and 304 G-tier Compact Wheel Loaders provide solutions for customers in applications such as landscaping, agriculture, snow removal, site development, and rental without sacrificing the world-class John Deere quality. The G-tier models offer optimal performance with lower maintenance costs. With convenience and productivity top of mind, these easy-to-operate models come standard with limited slip differential, which automatically engages if one wheel loses traction, providing enhanced safety for the operator and the machine. The optional ride-control reduces spillage from the bucket when traveling over rough terrain, reducing job site clean-up, and improving ride quality for the operator and can also be set to engage and disengage at certain speeds.
