Well lets have a look at the new linde Truck its called the HT or BR 1411 so hows does it compare with competition. If we are to look at the 10,000kg version to start with it is lighter than the 1401 the linde hydrostatic but at just over 16 ton in weight it is heavier than most competitors only kalmar and Kone heavier. Linde this might says gives better stability but more weight means less efficient on fuel consumption. length to face of forks is just over 4.5 meters again this about mid length longer than some but not as long as others. Width is again 2.5 meters and again just average on this as well.Turn radius at 4.1 m again average not as good as some but better than others. lift speed and lower speed is 0.42 M S again is is on the low side to competitors with most doing better than this even the 1401 is better. The tilting forward cab doesn't look like it gives as good access to the engine as side or backwards tilting


So how about driver comfort it has like most the new fly by wire hydraulic controls and the same monitor system again these all add to cost. With Doosan and Hyundai using normal hand control values which do seem more popular in North America as they don't seem to like the high cost of electronics both in truck price and service costs. If think they will have problems if they go up against these trucks.

On the engine they have gone with the MTU which is in my opinion the best engine on the market good all round engine and in front of all competitors even in tier V thats still three years a way

So all in all looks just average truck but will depend on price will it be better than Hyster Yale well not really as this is lighter and shorter but if its a lot cheaper than yes it will be. You can put up with being a little bit longer and wider if the price is OK.
