The Mitsubishi PBF25N2 truck

Mitsubishi expands PREMIA family
Almere, The Netherlands
Mitsubishi Forklift Trucks has added the PBF25N2 truck to the PREMIA EM series of platform power pallet trucks and introduced a new series of diesel-powered, pneumatic-tyre forklifts.
The 2.5 T PREMIA truck is designed to cope with demanding conditions and is built for non-stop, intensive use. The company says it can carry heavier loads over longer distances and at higher speeds. Like all PREMIA trucks, its vital components are enclosed and protected against water, dirt, damage and wear.
The new FD40N1-FD55N1 series has an 8,000-12,000 lb. (3,629-5,443 kg) lifting capacity and a new engine that provides a 21.6% increase in fuel efficiency over previous versions, the company says. The engine also complies with EPA Tier 4 emissions standards.
