Electric Forklift

Electric forklifts are used in warehouses, cold storage facilities, food and beverage operations, retail distribution centres and any indoor environment where air quality and noise levels matter. They produce zero exhaust emissions and operate quietly.

MCM Group electric forklifts start from R 385 000 excl. VAT (MCM E20 Electric Forklift). The final price depends on the model, configuration and any attachments. Contact your nearest branch or request a quote for current pricing and available specials.

It depends on the work. MCM Group's electric forklifts range in load capacity from 2000 kg (MCM E20 Electric Forklift) to 5000 kg (MCM E50 Electric Forklift) and in drive motor power from 11 to 29 kW. The comparison table on this page lists every model, and any of our four branches can help you choose.

Electric forklifts have significantly lower energy costs per shift than diesel equivalents. Electricity is cheaper than diesel per unit of work, and electric drivetrains require less routine maintenance — no oil changes, no exhaust system, no fuel filters.

Most electric forklifts need an 8-hour charge after a full shift. Many operations use opportunity charging during breaks. Battery replacement is typically required after 1 500 to 2 000 charge cycles depending on battery type and care.
