High Performance With Superior Efficiency

The Cat ® 980 XE Wheel Loader delivers excellent fuel efficiency, premium performance with simple-to-use standard technologies to boost operator efficiencies, and maintains low maintenance costs. This machine is designed to meet emission standards without interrupting operation, delivering great performance, reliability, durability, and versatility, resulting in a machine that is built to meet your needs.

Features may include:
  • Tire Pressure Monitoring System allows operator to easily monitor tire pressure from the main machine display, helping to improve machine performance, operator ride, and operating costs.
  • Deep system integration of the Cat continuously variable transmission, engine, hydraulic, and cooling systems results in significantly increased performance and fuel efficiency.
  • Performance Series Buckets utilize a system-based approach to balance bucket shape against the machine’s linkage, resulting in higher fill factors and better material retention when compared with other buckets of the same rated capacity.
  • Equipped with automatic Cat regeneration system, Cat Clean Emissions Module (CEM) with Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF), and Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF) tank and pump.
  • Tire Pressure Monitoring System allows operator to easily monitor tire pressure from the main machine display helping to improve machine performance, operator ride and operating costs.
