BYD, the world’s leading manufacturer of New Energy Vehicles (NEVs), is using the occasion of the LogiMAT trade fair (Hall 10, Stand G61 – Stuttgart, 31st May – 2nd June 2022) to introduce new products to its range of zero-emission forklifts. A highlight is the European premiere of the heavy-duty BYD ECB70/80 counterbalance forklift. Additionally, BYD is demonstrating an expanded range of industry-leading robust material handling equipment, all powered by the patented BYD Iron-Phosphate Battery.
Stuttgart, Germany – Since the previous staging of LogiMAT in 2019, BYD Forklift has significantly expanded its range of award-winning forklifts. The new heavy-duty BYD ECB 70/80 is BYD’s highest-capacity counterbalance forklift to date, and is being displayed in an outside area (between halls 9 and 10) to reflect its suitability for use both inside the warehouse and outside in the yard. Representing a breakthrough in a sector dominated by diesel- and lead acid-powered trucks, the BYD ECB70/80 can operate for up to nine hours on one charge. BYD’s advanced charging intelligence means with just one hour of charging, its range can be extended a further two to three hours, making it an attractive proposition for high-intensity operations in sectors such as manufacturing, beverage and building products.
