Genie said that its equipment delivers a low total cost of ownership and strong residual value at the end of a machine’s first lifecycle. An example is the S-85 XC FE and E boom-lift models which feature more than 80 quality improvements that reduce maintenance.
The result is a 15% reduction in ownership costs for the E electric machines and a 6% reduction for FE hybrid machines.
Genie is also focused on the application of technology to make sure these boom lifts can stand the test of decades of operation in the field. The Genie S-85 XC FE is a prototypical design for the future. The company said that future releases will be ever-more intuitive with advanced sensors, new safety features and reduced service requirements.
While Genie offers customers the choice of electric, hybrid or internal combustion power, its advanced lithium-ion electric and hybrid AC E-Drive systems deliver diesel-like performance with lower noise, fewer emissions and reduced total cost of ownership. Genie will continue to prioritise power-source flexibility as the company celebrates its 60th anniversary throughout 2026.
