Cat 277 expert review
:quality(50)/60952/a25e1d76-5098-4ef7-a6f5-fe8bc1dffd1a.jpeg)
Overview
The Cat 277 family delivers over 1,338 kg rated lift and nearly 2.5 tons of breakout, making it one of Cat’s most powerful compact track loaders from this era. It targets heavy material handling at a strong value point.
Pros
Exceptional breakout, high rated lift, very strong pushing power.
Cons
Heavy footprint on finished ground and dated comfort on older variants.
Efficiency
The 61.15 kW engine and 2,487 kg breakout favor aggressive loading and fast cycles under heavy material conditions.
In Cabin
Early models feel dated, while C and D variants improve visibility and comfort.
In Comparison
Against Cat 259 and Cat 267B, the 277 stands out for raw power at a lower entry price.
Final Verdict
A 5-star compact track loader delivering serious muscle for material handling and rough site work.
