The new Cat 770G off-highway truck, a 40 tonne model designed and built for demanding construction, quarry and mining application, has been unveiled at Excon 2011 in Bangalore. The 770G features an efficient Cat engine and drive train configured to deliver high production and low cost per tonne of material hauled. An extensive list of options enables customers to configure their trucks to match their applications and their business objectives. The 770G builds on the proven performance of the 770, which was introduced in 2006 and accumulated hundreds of thousands of hours moving materials. The 770G expands that legacy with manufacturing availability from India, allowing Caterpillar to better serve customers in China, India and Asia. The 770G incorporates many features to enhance performance and safety and reduce life cycle costs. At the heart of the new truck is the Cat C15 ACERT engine, which produces 365 kW (489 hp) and is available with two different emissions control strategies to suit the customer’s needs.
