The Cat C18 engine provides efficient fuel management for quick response, high productivity and exceptional service life. Torque rise effectively matches transmission shift points for maximum efficiency and fast cycle times. Mechanically Actuated, Electronic Unit Injection (MEUI™) high-pressure, direct injection fuel system electronically monitors operator demands and sensor inputs to optimize engine performance. Air-to-air aftercooling provides improved fuel economy by packing cooler, denser air into cylinders for more complete combustion of fuel and lower emissions. Turbo is water cooled to improve performance and service life.

Features
The Cat C18 engine features the optional Ventilation Reduction (VR) Package. The VR Package incorporates selective engine hardware and software to minimize diesel particulate matter in the engine exhaust. Engines equipped with the VR Package feature a significant ventilation rate reduction, maintains fuel consumption, and maintained or improved product performance. VR Package availability is subject to regional regulatory compliance. Optional engine with emissions equivalent to U.S. EPA Tier 3 and EU Stage IIIA is also available.
A Cat Diesel Particulate Filter can be used with the VR engine package. This filter compliments the VR engine by further reducing particulate matter in the exhaust. Requires the use of ultra-low sulfur diesel (15 ppm) and CJ-4 low ash engine oil.
Mechanical Power Train
The Cat mechanical drive power train and power shift transmission provide unmatched operating efficiency and control on steep grades, in poor underfoot conditions, and on haul roads and drives with high rolling resistance.
Transmission
The Cat seven-speed planetary power shift transmission is matched with the direct-injection C18 engine with ACERT technology to deliver constant power over a wide range of operating speeds.
