SUPERIOR FUEL EFFICIENCY

• Deep system integration of the Cat continuously variable transmission, engine system, hydraulic system, transmission and cooling system results in significantly increased performance and fuel efficiency.
• Lowering the rated engine speed and eliminating the torque converter results in speed that can be controlled independently of the engine speed.
• Our high-power density and fuel efficient engines feature Cat electronics, a fuel injection process, and air-management systems.

ACHIEVE GREATER PRODUCTIVITY

• Continuously variable transmission delivers smooth shifts, fast acceleration, and speed on grade.
• Machine maneuvering on grade is made easy with steady deceleration and anti-rollback.
• Integrated continuously variable transmission provides maximum, steady power at optimal speeds.
• Easy-to-load performance series buckets improve material retention and reduce dig times, significantly improving productivity and fuel efficiency.
• Differential locks are activated on the spot, improving traction for increased productivity.
• Dual ride control accumulator system enables a wide payload range and better ride quality.
• Aggregate packages with specialized offerings for loose aggregate rehandling applications.*
  
  * Optional configurations and equipment may vary from region to region and requires conformance to Caterpillar payload policy. Consult your dealer or Caterpillar representative for details.
