John Deere unveiled a concept version of its 850 X-Tier E-Drive dozer at ConExpo-Con/Agg 2023, and after two years of field testing and refinement, the production version is ready to start shipping to dealers.

The new dozer debuted at the company’s 2025 Construction Field Days customer event in Sacaton, Arizona. Tony Dietz, co-owner of Bob Dietz & Sons, and Dane Cotton, owner of DC Excavation, can be seen demoing the machine at the event in the video above.

While at first glance the 850 X-Tier looks similar to the 850L it is modeled after, there are plenty of changes under the hood, inside the cab and to the undercarriage to enhance the efficiency and comfort of the machine, most notably the dual-path electric drive transmission, known as E-Drive.
