Caterpillar designed its first utility vehicles—the gasoline-powered CUV82 and diesel-powered CUV102D—to deliver durability, comfort and maintenance simplicity. The company says these vehicles also come equipped with:

  • A steel cargo bed, 1,000-pound total rear cargo capacity and 2,000-pound towing capacity for a variety of applications.
  • A four-wheel independent suspension system with a front sway bar to provide stability at full load.
  • A long swing-arm suspension, custom-tuned springs and shocks to strike a balance between a smooth ride and hauling loads.
  • Ample ground clearance to ensure the vehicles navigate rough terrain with ease.
  • A 0.8-L three-cylinder gasoline engine delivering 50 HP on the CUV82 and a 1.0-L three-cylinder diesel engine delivering 25 HP to the CUV102D.
  • Smooth acceleration, clear sightlines, and engine braking capability to facilitate hauling and towing.
  • A passenger seat base that can be removed and stowed behind the driver's seat to create floor space for hauling oversized items. 
  • A column shifter for easy maneuvering through gears.
  • A continuously variable transmission, tuned specifically for work applications, for smooth transitions and the ability to handle loads.
  • Electric power steering to provide easy handling and tight turning capabilities.
  • An instrument gauge for easy viewing of operating information, such as ground speed, engine speed, operating hours, the odometer, battery voltage, engine temperature and fuel levels.
  • Easy-access service points to simplify vehicle maintenance, while on-board advanced diagnostics reduce troubleshooting time.
  • More than 50 accessory options.
