SCHERTZ, Texas - Caterpillar Inc. recently announced a $90 million investment to prepare its facilities in Schertz and Seguin to produce the all-new Cat C13D industrial engine.

"We appreciate the support from the local community as we prepare our Seguin and Schertz facilities to produce the C13D engine," said Mark Stratton, vice president and general manager of Caterpillar's Industrial Power Systems - Large Engines. "The Caterpillar team in Texas will produce the quality parts and engines we need for our customers as we help them build a better, more sustainable world."

The C13D is a 13-liter diesel engine platform designed to achieve best-in-class power, density, and fuel efficiency. The engine optimizes the performance of heavy-duty off-highway applications such as agricultural production, material handling, construction, mining, and aircraft ground support.

The investment includes new equipment installations at both facilities, $70 million in Schertz to

make C13D engine components and $20 million in Seguin to assemble the engines. It will create 25 jobs.
