 In a thrilling evolution set to redefine the landscape of compact equipment, Doosan Portable Power (DPP) and Doosan Industrial Vehicle (DIV) are gearing up for a monumental rebranding under the iconic Bobcat name. As we eagerly anticipate the transition into 2024, this blog post delves into the exciting journey that awaits and the transformative impact it promises for both Doosan and Bobcat enthusiasts.


The decision to rebrand DPP and DIV under the esteemed Bobcat brand is not merely a strategic shift; it's a visionary move. Scott Park, Doosan Bobcat CEO & Vice Chairman, expressed the anticipation of unveiling the Bobcat brand in innovative ways. This bold step, driven by a shared legacy of developing high-quality products, aims to expand business lines and offer an even broader range of solutions to customers.


The rebranding of two pivotal business areas, portable power, and industrial vehicles is set to fortify the overall brand equity, market recognition, and consumer recall of all product offerings. By creating a cohesive customer experience, Doosan Bobcat Inc. is poised to extend its footprint, making the brand accessible to a wider audience and in more locations.


Bobcat, a name synonymous with innovation since 1958, has not rested on its laurels. Over the past five years, the brand has launched more machines than ever before, broadening its product portfolio with groundbreaking technologies and innovations. From compact tractors to small articulated loaders, mowers, and turf equipment, Bobcat has consistently empowered groundbreakers worldwide.
