Toyota extends range
Mjölby, SwedenToyota Material Handling has now expanded its Tonero HST forklift range to include 2-2.5 T LPG and 3-3.5 T LPG and diesel forklifts after "a very positive launch" of diesel trucks with hydrostatic transmission at the end of 2013.
Last year, Toyota introduced its first hydrostatic transmission on the Tonero diesel range of 2.0 to 2.5 tonnes.
The Tonero HST was one of the company's highlights at the CeMAT 2014 intralogistics fair in Hannover where Toyota took over Linde Material Handling's usual exhibition space to showcase its latest products and solutions.
Toyota Material Handling has also launched the new BT Levio P-series powered pallet truck range, which it boasts provides exceptional efficiency and safety.
With load capacities of 2.0, 2.2 and 2.5 T, the trucks are commonly used for the loading/unloading of lorries. The BT Levio LPE250 can reach 12.5 km/h (7.8 mph.); Toyota says it is the highest speed for a powered pallet truck in the market so far.
The trucks' small frame allows for excellent all-round visibility and customers can choose driver protection solutions, which include fixed side protection, and foot sensor at the back that reduces the risk of foot injuries.
