Additional Information

The Cat 972 XE features a revolutionary continuous variable transmission (CVT) system that delivers up to 35% more fuel efficiency compared to previous models. By decoupling engine speed from machine ground speed, the CVT allows the engine to operate at its most efficient RPM. Standard integrated technologies, including Cat Payload with Assist and Autodig, optimise bucket loading cycles and prevent overloading, significantly boosting site productivity and reducing tyre wear.
