17 Oct 2022 CW Team

John Deere has expanded its line-up of large wheel loaders with the introduction of the all-new 744, 824 and 844 P-tier model under its Performance Tiering Strategy.

In conjunction with the 904 P-tier that was unveiled at World of Asphalt earlier this year, Deere says, this series of loaders offers advanced features that makes them ideal machines for contractors looking to tackle even the toughest jobs.

“Building upon the improvements introduced on the L-series loaders in 2019, the P-tier models incorporate even more technology advancements, providing our customers with a line of dependable and strong wheel loaders to meet the demands of the aggregates industry,” said Luke Gribble, John Deere solutions marketing manager.

The naming system is based on three tier levels for equipment: G, P and X. The P-tier for wheel loaders represents the same advanced features as those on the company’s L-series models. G represents economy models, and X represents the company’s most advanced features and hybrid diesel-electric technology. Those letters replace the letter behind the model number.

“Whether the machines are working at the face or loading trucks, John Deere customers can be confident that the P-tier machines will provide exceptional performance all day – even in the most rugged applications,” Gribble said.
