Caterpillar is showcasing its new 775 off-highway truck at Bauma 2025, which got underway Monday.
The machine, which Caterpillar plans to officially introduce in 2026, is the first next-generation design of off-highway trucks for Caterpillar.
Distinguishing it from the previous 775 models, Cat says the 71-ton-payload hauler is engineered to enable fully autonomous capabilities in the future.
“The design of the next-gen 775 represents a significant leap forward in off-highway truck technology, offering unmatched power, efficiency and safety features,” says Tony Fassino, group president of Construction Industries at Caterpillar. “Visitors at Bauma will see our full range of technology offerings, from remote control to semi-autonomous to the future of autonomous machines in construction.”
Caterpillar says it is leveraging its current autonomous hauling systems already at work at mine sites around the world and scaling them to meet specific needs for quarry operations.
“We are using the lessons learned from working with our U.S.-based customer, Luck Stone, where we have MineStar Command for hauling installed on four Cat 777 trucks,” says Denise Johnson, group president of Caterpillar Resource Industries. “The shift to the aggregate industry, where we are automating fewer trucks that don’t haul material 24 hours a day, is helping transform our technology and processes to manage smaller operations.
Autonomous capabilities with MineStar Command for hauling are currently under development, Cat says. A release date will be announced in the future.
