Model History and Information: The Cat® M318 wheeled excavator is the current generation of Caterpillar's mid-size wheel excavator line, built for road mobility on urban construction, utility, and roadside work. It is powered by a Cat C4.4 engine that meets U.S. EPA Tier 4 Final and EU Stage V emission standards, and comes standard with rear and right-side view cameras plus a high-resolution touchscreen monitor in the cab. This 1:50 High Line Series replica reproduces that current-generation cab and undercarriage, distinguishing it from the earlier D and F Series wheel excavators also cataloged as Diecast Masters models.
