E-quipment highlight: Palfinger FLS 25 eDRIVE truck mounted forklift

PALFINGER FLS 25 eDRIVE: Revolutionizing Material Handling

The material handling experts at PALFINGER have released the FLS 25 eDRIVE – an all-electric, truck mounted forklift that the company says is perfect for construction engineers, motorcycle powersports dealers, and LTL logistics fleets.

From its North American headquarters in Illinois, PALFINGER offers a number of truck-mounted forklifts in various configurations (side-seat or center-seat, mounted at the rear of the truck, or remote-operated), but the FLS 25 eDRIVE represents the company’s first all-electric offering.

“This forklift is more than just a tool,” reads the official copy announcing PALFINGER’s FLS 25. “It’s a statement of progress.”

To that end, the new electric forklift features a 26 kW (35 hp) electric drive motor and stout, 2.5 ton (5000 lb.) lifting capacity. Maneuverability is also impressive, thanks to up to 180 degrees of steering angle combined with the precise drive control offered by the electric motors.

PALFINGER hasn’t released battery specs, but promises overnight charging on a CCS L2 connector (shown, above) as well as live battery monitoring thanks to a high-visibility digital dash display. A rear-facing camera that transmits to the driver’s cab is standard, offering unrestricted visibility and, frankly, making it easier to avoid smashing up your brand-new forklift on the first day.
