Powered by a 615 kW (824 hp) Cat C27 engine, it meets global emissions standards without requiring diesel exhaust fluid (DEF), with two alternative engines for varied regional requirements. The advanced pilot pump system offers variable hydraulic oil flow, enhancing fuel efficiency by at least 5.5%. The PPPC hydraulic system modulates flow for smooth operation, while its four-pump setup delivers precise multifunction control.

Boom-lowering float valves and a closed-loop swing system improve speed and energy efficiency. A heavy-duty undercarriage protection package extends component life, and durable steel attachments withstand harsh conditions. The automatic lubrication system for bucket linkage, triple roller slew bearing, and larger grease tank support longer service intervals.
