Both are zero tail swing models. The ViO17-1E Yanmar excavataor has a retractable undercarriage that allows operators to hydraulically extend and retract the track width.

New features include standard PTO quick-connect fittings that allow for easier hookup or switching between attachments and an upgraded LED boom light integrated into the boom.

Updates to the operator station include a new seat, an ergonomic throttle,  and better display positions for easy access.

The ViO25-6B also includes ECO Mode, Auto-Decel Mode, and auto shift 2-speed travel as standard features. ECO Mode helps extend engine life, lengthen oil change intervals, and reduces fuel consumption by reducing engine speed and power draw when not needed. Auto shift 2-speed travel design shifts the machines between low and high range automatically, enhancing making the switch between job site tasks and longer travel times.
