Yes, you are right. But my question was about biggest manufacturer of electric truck. Who is it ? May be CROWN, may be Jung. or Linde (they produce a lot of electric truck as well).

If you go to Modern Material Handling's website, they have an article on the top lift truck companies of 2006. They are as follows:
1. Toyota (Toyota & Raymond Brands)
2. Kion Group (Linde, Still & Om)
3. Jungheinrich
4. Nacco Industries (Yale/Hyster)
5. Crown

As of today, Crown is the only manufacturer of those top 5 that only produces electric lifts.
