Hyster manufactures last of forklifts
Fleet, United Kingdom
Hyster has announced that after more than 25 years in production, it has manufactured the last of its XL 24 v three-wheel electric trucks.
The A1.00-1.50XL was unique because every aspect of design, development and testing was carried out in Scotland, nearly 5,000 mi. (8,047 km) away from their global development centre in Portland, USA.
The original design has been replaced by the next generation series of A1.3-1.5XNT, 24 v compact, rear-wheel drive truck.
Last December, the "last truck" was shipped from Craigavon, Ireland to Luxembourg. More than 16,000 of the trucks were produced in the company's history.
