Caterpillar Offers Zero-Percent Financing on Generator Purchases through December

Caterpillar is offering zero-percent APR financing on all North American compact generator sets 600ekW and smaller. This program is designed to help customers meet their needs for standby and prime power applications while benefiting from below-market interest rates.

The financing program, extended through its subsidiary, Caterpillar Financial, offers zero-percent APR over a 12-month repayment period on any qualifying purchases made before Dec. 31, 2008 and shipments scheduled prior to May 31, 2009. Promotional rates will apply on all new Caterpillar and Olympian diesel or gas generator sets up through and including 600ekW, as well as Caterpillar-branded ATS, UPS and switchgear products including PointGuard systems. The program encompasses installment sale contracts and full payout finance leases.

Caterpillar's zero-percent APR financing offer is based on price and applicable sales tax. An additional 10 percent of the total purchase can be used for customer installation and other soft costs. Low financing rates are also available to qualified customers purchasing equipment on longer terms. All financings are subject to credit approval. Interest rates are subject to change according to market conditions. This promotional offer is only available through Caterpillar dealers.
