Al-Bahar has announced the launch of Cat GC range across its territory, with the two models being offered as part of the range introduction including 950 GC and 330 GC
The machines have been designed to move more material in less time, at a lower cost per tonne, for a faster return on equipment investment. According to Al-Bahar, the GC models are a result of the continuous expansion of the range by Caterpillar, after the success of its 950 GC wheel loader launched previously.
This particular range of equipment is known for offering convenient acquisition and operating costs. They are simply economical with an attractive total cost of ownership. Built as per the Cat production system standards, they are best-in-class machines and come with the standard Cat brand promise of durability and reliability.
Bringing along the new standard, the GC machines are ideal for those looking for machines that are simple, durable, fuel competitive and easy to use. Moreover, with the extensive support of Al-Bahar dealer network and services with Cat Genuine Parts, the GC models create opportunities to optimise businesses.
?Having considered our customer requirements, we found that some of our existing customers wanted simple fuel-efficient machines, which would minimise their owning and operating costs,? quoted Samer Ismail, product manager ? earthmoving and excavation, Al-Bahar.
?With an objective of meeting our customers? expectations, we have introduced the GC range, including machines that offered high performance and are supported by Al-Bahar. Our customers are aware; there will be no compromise on the quality and after-sales support,? added Ismail.
