Hyundai Heavy Industries Europe has released a range of electric-powered industrial towing and platform trucks which are compact, quiet, and robust.

Hyundai Heavy Industries Europe has released a range of electric-powered industrial towing and platform trucks to complement its expanding range of materials handling equipment Initially there will be two basic models: the 4t-capacity 40T Towing Truck and the 1.5t-capacity 15P Platform Truck

The two models share some basic components such as the battery, power-train and controls, and they have been designed with an eye to easy maintenance and simplicity of operation.

Above all, they are compact, quiet, and generally environmentally friendly.

A major feature which Hyundai is keen to promote is the robust build of these products.

The undercarriage and sides are of all-steel construction, whereas the bodywork is made of reinforced heavy-duty plastic.

Each machine is just 1.10m wide, and powered by a 48V, 280AH battery a with high-frequency DC converter driving a 2.7kW motor.

The unloaded weights are 1.25t for the 40T, and 1.20t for the 15P.
