Bobcat T740 expert review

Reviewed by Marcis V. on April 30, 2026

Overview

The Bobcat T740 (2019–2024) is a compact track loader designed for loading, grading, backfilling, and general construction support. It delivers 55.18 kilowatt gross power, 1,451.5 kg lifting capacity, and low 0.29 bar ground pressure, making it a practical option for buyers who need stronger lift and stable tracked performance.

Expert rating: 4 stars

Pros Strong lifting capacity, low ground pressure, and large fuel tank for longer shifts.
Cons Hydraulic flow is low on paper, and used pricing varies widely.

Performance & Efficiency

The Tier 4 engine produces 55.18 kilowatt of gross power, giving the T740 useful output for loading, grading, backfilling, and site cleanup. Its 1,451.5 kg lifting capacity, 0.85 m dump reach, 0.29 bar ground pressure, and 168.05 liter fuel tank make it practical for daily loader work, though the 23.09 lpm hydraulic pump flow is modest for demanding attachment use.

In Comparison

Cat 277: Strong market presence with good dealer support and parts availability.
Cat 279: More established resale confidence and wider used-market demand.
Bobcat T740: Stronger on lifting capacity and practical tracked stability, with a modern Tier 4 platform.

Final Verdict

Rated 4 stars, the Bobcat T740 is a capable compact track loader within the AED 106,000–400,000 range for buyers who need strong lift, low ground pressure, and stable tracked-loader performance for daily construction work.
