Built to empower operators
The PC220LC-12 is designed to empower operators to achieve high productivity on your jobsite while controlling costs. With a strong focus on enhancing the cab, it was engineered with the goal of creating the most comfortable, advanced, customizable and efficient working environment in a Komatsu excavator.
- The cab is 28% larger with 30% more legroom and 50% improved visibility*
- Large, intuitive and customizable high-definition cab monitor
- New multi-function, comfortable operator seat with heating and air suspension
- Up to a 20% reduction in fuel and diesel exhaust fluid costs*
Note: *All percentage claims are based on a comparison to the previous PC210LC-11 model. Cost reductions are achieved through a new electronically controlled hydraulic system and a high-output engine.
Features and benefits

Updated cab design
This new cab design enhances operator comfort and visibility, helping to maintain productivity during long shifts. Improved legroom and visibility (compared to the PC210LC-11).

Intuitive and customizable cab monitor
