The Cat D7E features “a first-of-its-kind electric drive system” which is said to boost productivity and efficiency while lowering operating costs and reducing fuel consumption. D7E dozers are at work in a wide range of applications throughout North America, Europe and Australia.
Pre-production studies suggested that the D7E would provide 10-30% better fuel economy over the previous D7 model, depending on the application. According to Cat Product Link data, customers using the D7E have already saved more than 5.3 million litres of diesel fuel as compared to the previous D7R model.
