Additional Information
The Cat 980 XE features a state-of-the-art Continuous Variable Transmission (CVT) system that delivers up to 35% increased fuel efficiency compared to previous models. By separating engine speed from machine speed, the CVT allows the engine to operate at its most efficient RPM, significantly lowering fuel burn while maintaining maximum hydraulic performance. Standard integrated technologies, including Cat Payload with Assist and Autodig, optimise bucket loading cycles and prevent overloading, ensuring maximum productivity and reduced tyre wear on Australian worksites.
