The Cat® 797 Mining Truck redefines 'big'.
Weighing in at more than one million pounds, the latest offering from Caterpillar has a payload capacity of 400 tons. The engine displacement is nearly 6,500 cubic inches, producing a massive 4,000 horsepower.
So, how does Cat build its 797 Mining Truck? In the same way as any vehicle - one piece at a time! However, because it takes such a long time, the company has created a three minute timelapse video to impress potential customers.
