Electric vehicles offer distinct advantages over any form of internal combustion (IC) lift truck. These advantages-in addition to the environmental benefits-include:

 
  • Reduced maintenance for electric trucks vs. IC trucks means less downtime for electric vehicles. This could translate into fewer vehicles and less capital cost for a given facility or operation.

  • Longer service life for electric lift trucks...about 30% longer than IC units, according to the Lead Industries Association, Inc.

  • Easier OSHA and anti-pollution requirements.Safe, efficient operation in hazardous and controlled environments.

  • Lower fuel coststhan for internal combustion units because electricity costs less per hour of work. Costs for battery power are lower even when factoring the replacement costs of batteries as an energy cost.

  • Lower overall operating costs. National Services, Inc., a consulting firm in Huntington Beach, CA, specializing in the economic control of material handling equipment has determined that there is a $.99 per hour average savings in the operating costs of electric vs. IC units.
