XGT Technology

The cordless answer to high demands

XGT® is a new 40V | 80V system with its own tools, batteries and chargers. Its combination of innovative tool design and higher output batteries provide a genuine solution for the highest demands in construction, industry, horticulture and many other areas.

The Makita XGT® battery platform is designed for applications with particularly high power requirements. The XGT® batteries deliver a maximum of 40V, i.e. twice as much as the 18V batteries of the LXT® platform.

Despite their similarity to the 18V LXT® batteries in shape and size, the XGT® batteries are a new system. The XGT® series complements the proven LXT® product range in a number of applications that require high performance, thus enabling unprecedented independence from stationary power sources.
