Total Cost of Ownership
Whether you own a fleet of machines or even just one, it's important to keep lifetime costs of the engine low. The Cat C18 aims to do just that through a combination of technologies that only require 500-hour service intervals and optimize fluid consuption levels to be the most effective and efficient no matter the application.
Cat Dealer Product Support
With product support offered through the global Cat dealer network and an included warranty, the Cat C18 offers peace of mind with scheduled maintenance and simplified service routines. See your Cat dealer for details.
Safety
Clean air isn't just about creating a better world, it's about work site saftey as well. That's why the Cat C18 features a clean emissions module that uses DOC, DPF and SCR tecnologies to keep the engine running cleaner than ever before.
