What Technological Advancements Do the Newest Models Feature

Today's leading electric forklifts are technological powerhouses. We at JABIL have integrated breakthroughs that solve common operator and manager frustrations.

  • High-Energy Density Lithium-Ion Batteries: Say goodbye to lengthy battery swaps and acid handling. These batteries offer fast charging, opportunity charging during breaks, and consistent power delivery until the end of the shift.

  • Integrated Fleet Management Telematics: Real-time data on vehicle location, utilization, and energy consumption is sent directly to your dashboard. This allows for predictive maintenance, reducing unexpected downtime.

  • Regenerative Braking: This system recaptures energy during braking and deceleration, channeling it back to the battery to extend operational runtime significantly.

  • Enhanced Operator Ergonomics: We design our cabins with superior visibility, intuitive controls, and suspension systems to reduce fatigue, which directly improves safety and productivity.

How Do the Key Specifications Compare Across Models

Understanding the specifications is crucial for matching the right equipment to your task. Below is a comparison of two popular latest-generation electric forklifts from the JABIL portfolio.
