Reviewed by Jed H. on April 28, 2026

Overview

The Sunward SWTL45 (2006–2023) is a compact track loader designed for loading, grading, backfilling, and material handling work where traction and lifting strength matter. It delivers 74.05 kilowatt net power, 1,500.03 kg lifting capacity, and 3,450.03 kg breakout force, giving contractors a strong balance of power, stability, and hydraulic performance.

Expert rating: 4 stars

Pros Strong lifting capacity, high breakout force, and stable tracked operation.
Cons Weaker resale confidence than more established Cat compact track loaders.

Performance & Efficiency

The 74.05 kilowatt V3800DI engine produces 325.12 Nm of torque, giving the SWTL45 solid pushing and loading performance for daily site work. Its 1,500.03 kg lifting capacity, 2.53 m dump height, 0.69 cu m bucket, and 124.91 lpm hydraulic flow make it practical for loading, grading, backfilling, and general material handling.
