2020 Caterpillar D5 Dozer (Next Gen) — ONLY 5,000 Hours — NON-DPF / NON-ADBLUE — 170HP — ~19 Tonne — Genuine CAT MS Ripper Fitted
Make: Caterpillar | Model: D5 (Next Gen) | Year: 2020 | Hours: 5,000 | Power: 170HP | Weight: ~19t | Emissions: Non-DPF / Non-AdBlue
A genuinely low-hour, late-model 2020 Caterpillar D5 Next Gen dozer — with only 5,000 hours and, importantly, in the sought-after NON-DPF / NON-ADBLUE configuration. This is the current-generation machine that Caterpillar renamed from the legendary D6N, now more powerful and up to 16% more fuel-efficient. Powered by the proven Cat C7.1 engine delivering 170HP (35HP more than the D6N it replaced) through a smooth fully automatic 3-speed transmission with lock-up clutch for faster cycle times and easy operation. Fitted with a genuine CAT MS multi-shank ripper and set up for serious production work at ~19 tonnes. Comes with a fresh 250-hour service and comprehensive workshop report through our brand-new purpose-built facility on the Sunshine Coast QLD. Ready to earn from day one.
NON-DPF / NON-ADBLUE — why this is a genuine advantage: This D5 is the non-DPF, non-AdBlue (non-DEF) configuration — and for many Australian operators, that’s exactly what they want. No diesel particulate filter means no forced regeneration cycles, no DPF blockages, no expensive filter replacements, and no AdBlue/DEF to buy, store or top up. It means fewer emissions-system sensors and electronics to fail, no risk of power-robbing derates from a blocked filter, and simpler, more reliable running — especially valuable for remote, mining, agricultural and heavy-duty work where uptime is everything. These machines are increasingly hard to find and highly sought after.
Only 5,000 Hours — late-model and barely run in: For a 2020 production dozer, 5,000 hours is genuinely low. The D5 is built to work many thousands of hours, so the next owner gets years of productive life with plenty of undercarriage and drivetrain life remaining. A low-hour, non-DPF, current-generation Cat dozer is a rare combination.
