Hyster Europe has expanded its range of electric forklifts with the introduction of models with lift capacities between 4T and 7T.

The new Hyster J4.0-7.0XTLG forklifts builds on the Hyster J2.0-3.5XTLG forklifts and are suited for both indoor and outdoor applications.

Hyster says the new forklifts “replace internal combustion engines with integrated lithium-ion batteries and permanent magnet motors for zero emissions and high efficiency”.

The forklifts feature rugged construction, liquid-cooled batteries, large tyres, and optional weatherproof cabins to handle tough conditions. An integrated lithium-ion battery enables fast charging.

Eva Nachtergaele, regional product manager for Hyster says: “We’ve taken everything our customers value about internal combustion engine (ICE) powered trucks - like strength, reliability, and performance - and delivered it in a no-nonsense, zero-emission package”.

The new forklifts also features large super elastic tyres and high ground clearance. Optional extras on some models include large dual-tread tyres and waterproof cabins.

“We’re committed to Clean Power that Means Business,” Nachtergaele adds.
