Kat Other models

The register lists 6 versions here with 93 to 330 kW, or 125 to 440 hp. The engine makers recorded are the Chinese suppliers Shangchai, Weichai Power and Weichai Deutz; all models run on diesel.

The span from around 125 hp for the 1254A to 440 hp for the 4WD types covers both medium agricultural tractors and heavy tractors for large-scale farming; the mix of Chinese-built engines places the brand within the growing segment of Chinese tractor makers increasingly offering powerful large tractors too.

When buying a used Kat model, the condition of the Shangchai or Weichai engines, the tightness of the cooling system and turbocharger, and on the 4WD types the condition of the four-wheel drive and the articulation or steering knuckles all matter most; parts availability is worth clarifying directly with the relevant sales partner before purchase. The growing share of Chinese suppliers in the tractor market is also reflected in the engine mix recorded in this register.
