Caterpillar will be launching its new Cat® 140 Motor Grader, upgrading it to the next generation platform. The new model, which features the next generation hallmarks of efficiency, productivity and operator comfort, will debut at bauma 2025 in Munich.

Over the years, customers have shown that the 140’s usefulness and flexibility has few limits. Its frame lends itself to easy transportation, and its power and performance have seen it put to work in everything from snow clearance to sugarcane operations, in addition to its everyday use in roadbuilding and ditching.

Safety and efficiency rely on good visibility, so the Cat 140 Motor Grader features the highly successful cab design from the next gen excavators. Larger windows provide better visibility out of the cab, ensuring better all-round views, including mouldboard and tyres, while an as-standard rearview camera augments direct lines of sight.

The camera feed is integrated into the 10-inch touchscreen, which also provides operator access to other next generation functions such as Cat Grade. A new seat takes advantage of the next gen cab’s greater footspace and hip room, offering a variety of adjustments to improve operator comfort and reduce fatigue. The cab features revised seatbelt and safety harness options.

Also benefiting from the next gen upgrade are the 140’s joystick controls. While Caterpillar has stuck with its industry-exclusive three axis joystick system, which studies show is more ergonomical for operators than levers and a steering wheel, the 140 makes several updates to the joysticks themselves to help further boost productivity.

The new Cat 140 continues its proven design and exceptional reliability to ensure low operating costs coupled with favourable fuel efficiency. The 140 features banked and centralised access checkpoints that make daily maintenance a breeze rather than a bind.

There is a lot of good information collected so far from the multiple machines being tested in the world with more than 40.000 hours accumulated so far.

The new Cat 140 also offers expanded technology capabilities, from simple features to improve operator’s comfort, like the stable blade, to fully calibrated 3D systems for reduced total cost of ownership.

The new Cat 140 is due for production in Q1, 2026.
