Caterpillar unveils largest track loader - The powerful Cat 973

A track loader is the one machine that can do it all – clear, load, dig, carry, fill, and more – even in tough or slick ground conditions. The new Cat® 973 track loader combines unmatched versatility with up to 10 per cent better fuel efficiency, more productivity, cab improvements, and optional Payload technology. The 275 hp (205 kW) crawler loader has an operating weight of 65,901 lb (29,892 kg) and replaces the 973K worldwide. It joins the 953 (160 hp/119 kW) and 963 (202 hp/151 kW) in the Cat track loader line.
