A day before the crowds descended upon ConExpo-Con/Agg 2020 in Las Vegas, Caterpillar unveiled it’s all new D7 dozer model. The new D7 packs more power, more weight, and potentially huge productivity gains over its predecessors.
You can check out all the details in this video or read on below.
As has been the case with all of Cat’s new machines in the last year or so, the new D7 is subject to Cat’s new naming convention that drops letters from its model names. As such, this new D7 replaces the D7E and D7R.
The new D7 features a High Drive undercarriage design that Cat says provides a smoother ride, better stability thanks to a lower center of gravity, long track life and easy clean out of accumulated dirt and other material thanks to all the room between the track and the roller frame.
Cat says the High Drive undercarriage is also easier to repair and rebuild thanks to modular component design.
