Trends in class 1 forklifts

Which type of front axles do you as predominant in the next years in electrical counterbalanced forklifts? The classic non steering axle, the electric motor/hydraulic pumps combination or the new integrated direct drive axles (having motor, transmission, sensors integrated all in one). What % of each of the 3 solutions for the next 5-10 years? Thanks.

Thanks a lot. Indeed very answer. I do see however (mainly in Europe) more and more EM (electromecanical drives) being tested/introduced (e.g. Jungheinrich, etc). Indeed it looks like this technology is still few years away.
