Are you thinking about switching to tough lithium-ion battery powered lift trucks for your materials handling operation? If you’re looking for ‘Clean Power that Means Business’ for your industrial warehouse and storage operations, you’ve got options with Hyster. It all depends on your business objectives, your operating environment and your operators.
Choose Hyster® electric lift trucks for indoor and outdoor operation
If your materials handling operation requires both indoor and outdoor lift trucks, the new Hyster® J 2.0-3.5XTLG integrated lithium-ion battery powered forklift could be the choice for you.
Designed and built for use in both indoor and outdoor operations, it offers a durable, flexible lift truck option. With zero exhaust emissions, it meets emissions regulations. It’s as well suited to your indoor operations as it is tough enough for outside operation, in challenging weather conditions. This reduces the need for separate indoor and outdoor machines. You can right size your fleet and help to keep productivity high, resulting in lower costs.
The Hyster truck’s lithium-ion batteries can also be charged efficiently, helping reduce day-to-day operating costs. Coupled with a long battery life, the Hyster J2.0-3.5XLTG can deliver up to 50% cost savings, compared with the cost of operating an equivalent ICE truck.
To help your operation achieve Clean Power that Means Business, you can select a battery option to suit your application needs. Choose from 154V or 115V batteries to match your power requirements and operational intensity. The Hyster J2.0-3.5XTLG also includes a larger battery capacity than many competitors as standard, to power longer run times and reduce downtime, further contributing to a low cost of operation.
Choose a Hyster lift truck for affordable zero-emissions

They offer lift capacities up to 3.5 tonnes and can reach up to 6m, helping to maintain productivity in your industrial handling operations. And it’s not just about a cost competitive acquisition price. The lithium-ion UT truck options also deliver on low cost of ownership.
For example, zero-emission trucks are easy to maintain, keeping service and maintenance costs down. They are also dependable, and easy to operate. All while meeting local emissions standards, affordably supporting your business’s sustainability goals.
