The MT 625e, with a lifting capacity of 2.5tonnes and a height of 6m, is said to deliver the same performance as its comparable internal combustion counterpart. Fitted with a 25kWh or 33kWh lithium-ion battery, the model reduces maintenance costs by 56% and noise levels by 12%.
Perfect for indoor or city centre use, the MT 625e, like all the other models in the Manitou compact telehandler range, benefits from the new Safety Pack, designed to protect the operator and the site teams, as well as alerting fleet managers to any high-risk behaviour.
“Key features of the Safety Pack include harness detection and identification of obstacles around the machine’s chassis,” said Arnaud Boyer, vice president of Marketing and Product Development at Manitou.
“A ‘lighting’ pack ensures the utmost safety for platform loading and unloading operations with a number of lights positioned on the platform to maximise visibility,”
The first commercial units will be shipped to the global market by mid-2023, Laurent Bonnaure, executive vice president at Manitou, added.
