TIME is unveiling the VERSALIFT V-270 for the first time at the Platformers’ Days 2026 in Karlsruhe. As the fourth model in the new V-Range, this truck-mounted aerial work platform expands the series’ capabilities to a working height of 27 meters. Interest in the new model is high: Numerous trade show visitors are taking the opportunity to get to know the vehicle on site and test drive it themselves.

27-meter working height – powerful and versatile

With a maximum working height of 27 meters, the V-270 is the top-of-the-line model in the V-Range lineup, which consists of a total of seven different models. The machine was designed for applications requiring great working heights and combines vertical performance with the stability and controlled operation of the V-Range architecture.

A key feature is its 300 kg basket load capacity without the use of a load cell. At the same time, the V-270 enables work at great heights without requiring a heavier carrier vehicle. A Class B driver’s license is sufficient to operate the vehicle . As a result, the work platform offers fleet operators a high-performance solution that can be used flexibly and is accessible to a wide range of operators.

V-Range: A Standardized Series for Efficient Fleets

With the V-Range, VERSALIFT is pursuing a consistent standardization approach for truck-mounted work platforms. The series comprises a total of seven models with working heights ranging from 17 to 27 meters. A common technical platform ensures a uniform operating concept and simplifies maintenance across the entire fleet.

The standardized product line concept is designed to increase fleet efficiency, reduce operational complexity, and support long-term, reliable use. The V-Range is aimed at rental companies, municipalities, energy providers, telecommunications providers, and infrastructure specialists who rely on cost-effective and versatile work platforms in the 3.5-metric-ton segment.

The V-270 marks the introduction of the fourth model in the series. Additional models are planned for 2027.

Strong Interest Despite Rain on the First Day of the Trade Show

The response at Platformers’ Days also confirms the interest in the new work platform. Numerous visitors took the opportunity to experience the V-270 firsthand and learn how to operate it during a test drive.

“There’s a lot of interest in the V-270. Many visitors took the vehicle for a test drive. Even on the first day of the trade show, when it was raining, visitors stood in the work basket and wanted to get to know the machine,” reports Jens Westermann, Head of Sales Germany at RUTHMANN. With the live premiere of the V-270, VERSALIFT continues the rollout of the new V-Range. The series combines a standardized design with different working heights, thereby creating a common foundation for use in a wide range of applications.
