The complete range of Toyota Traigo 80 forklift trucks (now including models from 2.0t to 5.0t) covers a variety of applications: from stacking in narrow aisles with the more compact models through to heavy load handling in tough working conditions with the latest high tonnage models. The new models are more productive, safer and more energy efficient than ever.

The benefits of working with the Toyota Traigo 80 have been maximised: the range offers longer operating time and longer service intervals as well as various energy management solutions. The new 4.0 to 5.0 tons forklifts also bring higher productivity thanks to improved driving speed of up to 18 km/h, stronger acceleration and quicker lifting resulting in 15% more pallet movements compared to its predecessor. The new range includes a 5.0 ton model rated at 600 mm load centre – offering increased residual capacities and ideal for lifting longer loads or working with heavy attachments.

Built with the world’s unique Toyota System of Active Stability (SAS), a highly durable chassis and ergonomic operator compartment, the trucks are extremely reliable in heavy-duty operations and excel in overall visibility. Furthermore, they perform on an energy consumption level which has been improved up to 22% compared to the previous models.

“Toyota never ceases to find new solutions to suit all customers’ needs. Manufactured on the same values as the 2.0 to 3.5 tons range previously introduced and well appreciated by customers, the three newest heavy-duty models of the Toyota Traigo 80 family add to a highly versatile range of material handling equipment. All trucks fulfil the needs of the occasional or frequent user and are essential in fleet operations and intensive applications,” says David Backx, Product Management Counterbalanced Trucks at Toyota Material Handling Europe.

The new Traigo 80 range is one of the many new products, solutions and technologies that Toyota Material Handling presents during CeMAT 2014 (19th-23rd May) at Pavilion 32!
